Indian PayPal Users - Is that possible to receive payment without GST Number?

    Dear PayPal users,

    Hope you all get an email like this.

    "As you are aware, the Government of India has implemented the Goods & Services Tax (GST) effective July 1, 2017. PayPal will apply GST on its services effective from November 1, 2017.

    If you are registered for GST, it is important that you update your GSTIN details with us at the earliest.

    PayPal will issue a tax invoice based on the GST registration details provided by you. Please update your correct GSTIN to ensure you can claim input tax credit."

    My question - Is that possible to receive payment without GST Number?

    Thank you.

    No worries. It is confirmed from PayPal officials from the site itself.

    Yes, you can receive payments to your PayPal account without providing GST number. However You will not get the tax benefit of the GST that has been deducted by the PayPal. So, in that point of view if you want to tax claim than GST is necessary to insert in your PayPal account.

    Even I received the same message from PayPal. However, mine is personal account and not business.
