As many as 3.2 million Indian debit cards could be impacted, the paper added.

Earlier this week, country’s top public sector banking and financial services company State Bank of India said it had blocked cards of certain customers.

"Card network companies NPCI, Mastercard and Visa had informed various banks about a potential risk to some cards owing to a data breach. Accordingly, we have taken precautionary measures and have blocked cards of certain customers identified by the networks," SBI said in a statement.
