Airtel Money Commences Operations as NBFC-ND

Bharti Airtel's subsidiary, Airtel Money Limited, has officially commenced its commercial operations as a Type II Non-Deposit accepting Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC-ND ICC). This follows the issuance of a Certificate of Registration by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on February 13, 2026. The RBI has also provided a disclaimer stating that it does not guarantee the financial soundness or the repayment of liabilities by Airtel Money Limited. This development marks a significant step for Airtel's financial services arm.
