Just read the story. The story is more about Aadhaar eKYC mess than @paytm & how it is destroying Industry. Whole Banking Industry is now into "mandatory" Aadhaar eKYC rush for even though there is nothing makes aadhaar mandatory for a/c opening. Thread cc: @TheKenWeb sub-rule (17)(a) of Rule 9 of the PMLA Rules, 2005 as amended by Prevention of Money-laundering (Maintenance of Records) Second Amendment
Rules, 2017 clearly specifies that new account holders have upto six months to submit aadhaar.
