Paytm plans to open about 50,000 retail outlets across India, expanding its physical retail presence.

Why this matters

The outlet plan follows Paytm's planned ₹100 crore infusion into Paytm Money and echoes a resurfaced February 2015 report of a similar 50,000-store proposal.

Store-opening is steady, with 1,344 signals in the past 90 days; QoQ figures were not provided.
