At Paytm's 24th AGM, founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma announced a shift in focus from EBITDA before ESOP to Profit After Tax (PAT), aiming for true profitability. Sharma acknowledged that EBITDA before ESOP doesn't fully reflect the company’s financial health due to high ESOP charges. Paytm also plans to reapply for a payment aggregator license from RBI. The company is advancing its AI technology, already operational in Japan, while also supporting risk management solutions for PayPay. Shares dropped 1% to ₹660.45 on the BSE.
