The central bank has asked Paytm Payments Bank, the banking unit of Paytm to wind down its business by March 15, leading to disruption for the popular payment app. UPI is India's real-time payments system, operated by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), that allows users to transfer money across banks.

    Fiscally prudent India budget gives RBI liquidity wriggle room -Axis Bank's Gambhir

    The Indian government's plan to tighten fiscal policy next financial year has not only boosted sovereign bonds but could also push the country's central bank to ease its stance on liquidity, the treasury head of Axis Bank said on Friday. "Since the government has planned for fiscal consolidation and has opted for more aggressive fiscal tightening, it opens up room for the Reserve Bank of India to be somewhat more accommodative," said Neeraj Gambhir, group executive and head of treasury, markets & wholesale banking products. Gambhir said both fiscal and monetary policy cannot be loose simultaneously, particularly as inflation is running above target.
