Police given three weeks to conclude investigation into India’s Paytm

NEW DELHI (Reuters) – An Indian court on Monday has given police three weeks to conclude an investigation into claims from a former Paytm director who said he co-founded the digital payment platform but did not receive shares owed. Paytm has said the claim amounts to harassment and cited it under “criminal proceedings” in the prospectus for its proposed $2.2 billion initial public offering (IPO).
