Without mincing words, Sharma said: "On a professional level, I would say we should have done better, there are no secrets about it, we had responsibilities and we should have done much better."

Speaking at the seventh JIIF Foundation Day, Sharma was asked about the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) action on Paytm Payments Bank and how it affected him as a founder who had painstakingly built his company.

Sharma said that individually it was an emotional setback, and that professionally "we obviously learned a lesson and are much better..."

Sharma said his ambition is to build a $100 billion company and added that he wants the Paytm brand to be recognized globally, like an Indian company.

When asked how he felt after the erosion in One97 Communications' share price following its IPO, Sharma said his focus was and always is on the fundamentals and business dynamics of the company.
