The Delhi High Court ordered the winding up of Paytm Payments Bank Limited (PPBL) following an application by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) due to non-compliance with norms.
The court appointed Girikumar M Nair, a former CGM of the State Bank of India, as the official liquidator, granting him board powers effective from July 8, 2026.
The RBI had previously cancelled the bank's license in April 2026, citing affairs conducted in a manner detrimental to the interests of depositors and systemic supervisory concerns.
