Paytm Gains RBI Approval, Stock Surges
Paytm, a big company that helps people pay for things online, just got a special permission from the Reserve Bank of India.
This permission, called a COA, lets Paytm keep helping people pay for things on the internet.
Before this, Paytm wasn't allowed to add new shops or businesses to its payment system, but now it can.
This is great news for Paytm because it means they can grow their business and help more people pay for things easily.
Because of this good news, the price of Paytm's stock went up by 3.4%.
A big finance company called Goldman Sachs thinks Paytm's stock will keep going up and set a new target price for it.
Paytm's stock has been doing much better lately, going up 327% from its lowest point.
Paytm Payments Services Limited received RBI's Certificate of Authorization (COA) to operate as a payment aggregator.
The approval was granted on November 26, 2025, under the Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007.
RBI lifted restrictions on Paytm Payments Services Limited, allowing it to onboard new merchants.
Paytm's stock price surged 3.4% to ₹1,325 apiece on November 28, 2025, after Goldman Sachs upgraded its rating to 'Buy' and raised its target price to ₹1,570.
Goldman Sachs anticipates Paytm's stock could reach ₹1,870 per share, with a potential upside of 79% from its latest closing price.
