The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) terminating the nodal accounts of One 97 Communications Ltd and Paytm Payments Services Ltd could have significant effects on India's digital payments ecosystem. This decision will impact consumer and merchant payments, with Paytm's extensive network of merchants now having to switch to other payment platforms. It is expected that Walmart-owned PhonePe will be the biggest beneficiary of this situation, as they are already preparing for a surge in business. The move is likely to disrupt both consumer and merchant payments in the country.
