Koinex Mentioned,
For the past 12 months we have been talking with bankers, regulators, policy makers and legal consultants to explore how we could unfreeze the suspended bank accounts holding user deposits. In the face of persistent refusal by the banks to release user deposits, we have voluntarily and without any such legal obligation upon us, opted to rely on our own non-crypto resources to remit user deposits in good faith.
Users who have INR Balance stuck in the exchange are advised to update their KYC details on the platform and further customer support are adviced.
