Paytm, owned by One97 Communications Limited (OCL), has announced significant leadership changes to bolster its payment and financial services offerings. The company aims to build a robust and profitable distribution business in these sectors.

Bhavesh Gupta, the President and Chief Operating Officer responsible for overseeing payments and lending, has decided to take a career break due to personal reasons. However, he will continue to contribute in an advisory capacity to support Paytm’s growth initiatives until the end of the year.
