I am selling the services outside of India. My customers are outside of India and taking the payment from them via paypal. GST will apply on me or not. I have ask the CA but not get the exact answer.
 
Me too confused lol but I am not paying GST.

I do not provide any services it's all affiliate income.
 
As long as you are being payed in foreign currency ( anything but INR ) you do not have to pay GST until you cross 20 Lakhs of earnings but after crossing it you must pay GST for any sales or services i.e 18% of your earning per sale

That GST is supposed to be paid monthly?

I guess it's quarterly since that's how taxes are paid. Not completely sure because I'm far away from reaching 20L so haven't looked into more details of GST yet. However the link i have provided might help you out.
 
For your paypal payments, you get invoice from PayPal every month on behalf of the GST they deduct from you in fees. Please do take that into account as well.
 
There is a little confusion. 20lakh earning or 20lakh credit. I got the always different answer from different CA.

Its 20 lakhs Sales Turnover (not your Net Profit).
BTW paypal charges GST for its Service fee charged on your transaction - for your earnings you should calculate based on your accounts.

I do get the email from Paypal but when I check the GST it's a number I have never even given and a different Pan card number...what would you about this?
 
20 lakh credit.
ok so i have to pay GST or not becuase my turnover is above 20Lakh and i am getting all payment via paypal [My clients are outside of India]. One more question. I am buying services from FB/Google and they are charging me GST. Is there any way to get back GST from them. I am selling services to outside India of my clients.
