Withdraw PayPal Money Directly to A Bank Account in India for Free

Paypal India - Bank Account

Some very good news for PayPal users in India. You can now transfer money from your PayPal account to any of your bank account in India directly from the PayPal website.

Earlier, the only option for withdrawing PayPal amount in India was a check that normally took 2-3 weeks for processing. The new e-transfer process should take less than a week.

PayPal has also scrapped the withdrawal fees for electronic transfer if the amount withdrawn is more that Rs 7000 and a nominal Rs 50 for small transfers. Earlier PayPal would charge $5 per transaction irrespective of the amount on the cheque.

To get your money from PayPal to a bank account in India, all you require is your bank account number and the IFSCI code of the bank branch where you have the account – call your bank customer care service and ask for IFSC code -it’s an 11 digit code maintained by The Reserve Bank of India.

The e-transfer facility from PayPal India is available to anyone having an account in HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, ING VYSYA Bank, Axis Bank (formerly UTI Bank), Standard Chartered Bank, State Bank Of India, Bank Of India, Canara Bank, Union Bank of India, HSBC and Citibank India.

Before you withdraw the amount from PayPal to your Indian Bank account, ensure that name of the bank record and PayPal match character by character else the transaction will not go through and PayPal would also charge a INR 250 processing fee.

PayPal offers another option for Indians who hold a Visa credit card or debit card – you can withdraw funds directly to your Visa branded credit, debit or prepaid card.

Is PayPal Income Taxable in India - If you are earning web income through BlogAds, Text Link Ads, eLance, eBay or any other program where the money is deposited in PayPal, it’s very important that you declare the PayPal money while filing the Tax Returns in India.

Can I remit money to India Using PayPal – When you transfer money from PayPal to India, PayPal would pre-populate the surname field for Bank account holder though you are free to use any First Name. So if you are planning to remit money to some relative who share your surname, it is technically possible.

BTW Rajeev don’t put links in your comments. High traffic blogs turn off comments due to proplr like you.

Yup, even I was pretty happy with this news. I used to withdraw to my VISA card, which had a $5 fee.

However, the news didn’t turn out all that good for me as I use ABN Amro and that is not a participatory bank with PayPal.

:(

Good News and thanks to Amit.

I have been using the check till now and faced lot of issues.

Thanks again.

I suppose this is first step towards paypal opening its function for India too.
I mean accpeting INR value too.
I am waiting for that since it will be greatest boon to E-Commerce In India as there is no such free payment gateway in India.

Do you mean to say that we should have a bank account in the same business name as that of paypal ? Or is a personal bank account ok? i am having a business account with paypal. Can you please answer my question. thanks for the wonderful post amit.

I have found the following info in PAYPAL site in my account :
—————–

Add a bank account in India Secure Transaction

The safety and security of your bank account information is protected by PayPal. We will never reveal your financial information, and PayPal will notify you by email whenever you initiate a transaction with this bank account.

Your bank account in India must be able to receive payments in India Rupees.

Please enter your name exactly as it appears on your bank account. If the names do not match, your payment will be returned and a return fee will be charged. Learn more

PayPal uses the National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) system. Please provide the IFSC code of a participating branch location. If you provide an IFSC code from a bank branch that is not part of the NEFT network, your withdrawal will not be completed and a return fee will be charged. Learn more

Hi,It’s all frustrating to go through unanswered questions which are really very important.

When I created the paypal account, I have wrongly created as business account instead of personal account. I have given the “Business Name” as “Online Job” because i thought that they asked for nature of business. But that is reflecting as Bank account holder’s name in the transaction. But the account is different. Yesterday, the amount has been deposited into my account, but immediately after that it has been debited with the reason “NAME MISMATCH”. I could not see the returned payment also in my paypal account.can anyone advise me on what can be done to get my payment back.

What the guy did not tell you the inner story. I did a test send and by the time it reached the person, there was so much of this and that cut.

first to receive money you pay 3.9% if you are getting money from the US, then they give you a lower rupee rate, which is lower than what the current rate is.

The to send money to your account there is another charge.

They are making money all the way.

The problem is that HSBC (Mumbai) says that they dont offer this service despite being a participatory bank.
