Highlights Withdraw and transfer funds up to the available balance in PPBL accounts. No new deposits in PPBL accounts post-March 15, 2024. Refunds, cashbacks, and interest credits continue in PPBL accounts. Wallet, FASTag, and NCMC card usage allowed up to existing balance. From March 15, 2024, Paytm Payments Bank Ltd (PPBL) will see significant changes to its services following directives from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). This comes after the RBI identified non-compliance with banking norms by PPBL, leading to restrictions on the bank's ability to accept fresh deposits or top-ups from the said date. The RBI's decision has led to adjustments in the services provided by PPBL, impacting how customers can use their accounts. Here's a detailed overview of what's changing, what services will remain available, and what won't be accessible post-March 15.
