Paytm gets RBI approval for offline and cross border payment aggregation
Medial

Paytm Payments Services Limited (PPSL), a wholly owned subsidiary of One 97 Communications Limited, has received authorisation from the Reserve Bank of India to operate as a payment aggregator for physical or offline payments and cross border transactions, according to a regulatory filing. The approval allows PPSL to undertake cross border payment aggregation for both inward and outward transactions. This is in addition to the online payment aggregator authorisation granted by the RBI last month. With this authorisation, PPSL now holds payment aggregator approvals across online, offline, and cross border segments. The company said the approval enables it to offer payment aggregation services across multiple use cases for merchants. Paytm had earlier applied for a payment aggregator licence, which was returned by the RBI in November 2022. The company reapplied in September 2024 and received in principle approval from the regulator in August 2025, following which the final authorisation has now been issued. Paytm becomes part of a limited set of regulated players that are authorised to support domestic and cross border payments across both online and offline merchant channels on a single compliant platform. Other companies in this group include Razorpay, Easebuzz, PayU, Pine Labs, and Airpay. The company reported revenue from operations of Rs 2,061 crore in Q2 FY26, up from Rs 1,659 crore in the year ago period. However, its net profit fell sharply to Rs 21 crore from Rs 930 crore in Q2 FY25, primarily due to the absence of a one time gain in the base quarter and an impairment loss recorded in the latest quarter.

OneAssist’s operating revenue grew 22% to Rs 623 crore in the last fiscal year (FY25) from Rs 509 crore in FY24, according to its provisional financial statement reviewed by Entrackr. OneAssist offers assistance and protection services to customers for their wallets, cards, mobile phones, and gadgets. It claims to cover card frauds including skimming, phishing online ATM and PIN fraud and offers free replacement of the PAN card and driving license. The company made additional Rs 21 crore from non-operating sources which pushed its total income to Rs 644 in FY25 from Rs 513 crore in FY24. When it comes to expenses, the firm incurred finance costs of Rs 44 lakh in FY25 which reduced by 50% from Rs 83 lakh in FY24. Depreciation and amortization rose marginally to Rs 34.5 crore. Notably, OneAssist didn’t disclose much information in the expense breakup beyond these figures. Overall, the firm’s total expenses rose by 21% to Rs 652 crore in FY25 compared to Rs 538 crore in FY24. OneAssist reported a net loss of Rs 11 crore in FY25, a 56% reduction from loss of Rs 25 crore in FY24.

The Mumbai-based company recorded current assets worth Rs 496 crore in FY25, which includes Rs 134 crore in cash and bank balances. Built around the same model as CPP India, the British owned firm where Gagan Maini was the CEO earlier, the firm has comfortably outpaced its ‘parent’, and in fact might be a top prospect to take over CPP India’s operations, which have been up for sale by the British parent. According to TheKredible, Peak XV (formerly Sequoia Capital) holds the largest stake in the company, owning nearly 29%. The company's co-founders, Subrat Pani and Gagan Maini, collectively own 12.32%.
