Hello All... I want to know know whether I need to pay tax for the money withdrawn from paypal to my bank account in India. I want to withdraw about $500-$600, so can anyone tel me whether tax is applicable here... Regards
It depends on your annual income. No income tax is applicable on all income up to Rs. 1,60,000 per year. (Rs. 1,90,000 for women and Rs. 2,40,000 for senior citizens). If it crosses the limit, you are liable to pay tax on your income.
if its, below 50k for a single transaction, u need not pay any tax. do not get confused, its a common thing, if ur earnings start increase, then u be prepared, to pay some tax. its good. xx
Not true again. Bank needs PAN number only if you do a cash transaction of 50k or above. If you withdraw from your paypal account or do an online funds transfer, you do not have to provide PAN number even if the amount exceeds 50k. If you are under the assumption that doing transactions of less than 50k means you do not have to pay tax, then you are seriously mistaken. There is no clause in the I.T. Act which says if you withdraw/deposit in amounts less than 50k you are exempted from paying taxes. Shawn and I have a secret deal where he pays me $100 for every 100 posts I make in this forum
I think no matter what you should add it to your income tax that year. If they find out about the money i am sure the penalty fees would not be worth it.
Everyone uses paypal!!! I work for a merchant company and it super easy to get approved. They have wayyyyy lower rates.

Well yes as the money would go to your bank account , it would be added in your annual income , so you have to pay tax for it.
Hey mate if you are withdrawing 500-600$ then no need to pay tax. But if you think that your annual income is more than 1.6 Lakhs then you will have it pay the tax. or else dont worry!!!!
Thanks guys... That's some very very useful info. The IT stuff was a confusing issue for me. But with this thread and a few more mentioned by deluxdon, I am quite clear about that now...
