    I've linked my ICICI debit card with my paypal account and as soon as it did, paypal charged me a dollar for that. As now you can't buy anything online with Paypal and needs a credit card linked to the account for online purchases, I was wondering whether a debit card does that as well or not. Now that I have my debit card linked to Paypal, will I be able to buy online with money deducting from my bank account?

    One can't buy anything online using paypal through indian debit cards. It requires credit card for that.

    Not sure about Indian debit cards but in the US a debit card works the same with paypal as a valid linked credit card.

    ICICI bank debit cards work on most Indian shopping sites like Flipkart.com. You can even pay utility bills using debit cards.
