In response to an email query, a Groww spokesperson said the issue was caused by an "incident" at its cloud service provider, Google Cloud Platform. "We experienced a temporary disruption that prevented a very small fraction of our customers from making withdrawals. However, the incident was promptly resolved, and customers were able to withdraw their funds before market close," the spokesperson said.
