“In view of the satisfactory compliance demonstrated by Mastercard Asia / Pacific Pte Ltd with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) circular
dated April 6, 2018 on Storage of Payment System Data, the restrictions imposed, vide order dated July 14, 2021, on on-boarding of new domestic customers have been lifted with immediate effect," the RBI said in a statement.

RBI had earlier barred Mastercard from onboarding new domestic customers on its network over non-compliance with local data storage guidelines.
