Bank of America and JM Financial raised their target prices for Paytm, citing expected revenue growth from potential monetisation of UPI merchant payments through a Merchant Discount Rate (MDR). This development could unlock new earnings streams and improve Paytm's profit margins significantly over the next few years.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

UPI's monetisation is opening a new revenue channel for Paytm. You need to act now to build partnerships in the merchant payments space before competitors capitalize on this newly regulatory-backed opportunity.
