In other news, Paytm is expected to be a key beneficiary of India's latest UPI incentive scheme, said brokerage and global investment firm Morgan Stanley.

"Apart from banks, Paytm should be a key beneficiary of the above (scheme). On our estimates, Paytm would have received 5-7 per cent of the FY22 incentive, and assuming a similar share for FY23, this would represent 3-5 per cent of our contribution profit estimate (1 per cent higher than what we previously assumed for FY23)," the brokerage firm also mentioned.
