					<description><![CDATA[Totally agree with you. &lt;br /&gt;There is also another problem that Indian freelancers and small IT firms will face as we can&#039;t hold money for more than 7 days, we have to transfer the money  to our bank account and if it less than 7k, paypal will deduct 50 INR for that. This is really frustrating for us, I have even requested paypal not to deduct that addidiontal 50 INR but yet to receive any response.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Being an India citizen by birth and living in this country for 31 years, I am sure that understanding the concept of &quot;online wallet&quot; is a far fetched thing for RBI. I would consider myself lucky in fact, if I can see RBI understanding and allowing this concept before I die. And about Paypal, why would they want to take up the extra burden specially when parallel markets for small IT firms and freelancers are coming up fast in other countries (which somehow happen to be less developed than India, but way ahead in thoughts and planning). I personally feel it is indeed a very good opportunity for countries like Vietnam and specially Philippines to start taking over a lion share of the Indian freelance market. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, as the owner of a small IT firm, I think it is now in our hands to rather think of an alternative. A Paypal alternative, no matter how credible it is, would surely follow the same path and get in the same soup soon enough as more and more people start using it. Rather we need to find out an option in Wire Transfer or maybe have an online payment option through services like CC Avenue on our websites. The latter definitely is an expensive solution, but it is more likely to get through these RBI regulations since it works with CC and Indian Banks. Maybe we are just looking at a little more capital investment and little more break-even period. No matter what, hindrance to the growth is inevitable. We just need to reduce it as much as possible.]]></description>

<p>Reserve Bank of India: Another  puppet of corrupt government of India<br />(The new rule killing entrepreneurship and a black act to collect taxes for corrupt &#038; starving politicians)</p>
<p>Read below:<br />———————————————————————————————-<br />Upcoming changes to PayPal User Agreement for India with effect from 1 March 2011 </p>
<p>With effect from 1 March 2011, Paypal Users are required to comply with the requirements set out in the notification of the Reserve Bank of India governing the processing and settlement of export-related receipts facilitated by online payment gateways (“RBI Guidelines”). In order to comply with the RBI Guidelines, Paypal user agreement in India will be amended for the following services as follows:</p>
<p>1. Any balance in and all future payments into your PayPal account may not be used to buy goods or services and must be transferred to your bank account in India within 7 days from the receipt of confirmation from the buyer in respect of the goods or services; and</p>
<p>2. Export-related payments for goods and services into your PayPal account may not exceed US$500 per transaction. We seek your understanding as we continue to employ our best efforts to comply with the RBI Guidelines in a timely manner<br />———————————————————————————————-</p>
<p>The impact of the above will be as follows:</p>
<p>   1. More transactions between Paypal and Bank Account levying more transaction fees on the account holders<br />   2. Increased cost of selling or buying services<br />   3. Disallowing small entrepreneurs taking project assignments worth more than $500<br />   4. Will result in delay in receiving and sending payments<br />   5. Will hinder the growth of IT industry and entrepreneurs of India<br />   6. Will mount unemployment among already struggling professionals</p>
<p>It is apparent from the above that this rule has been specifically brought in effect to benefit corrupt politicians, governance and large companies</p>
<p>Whether you are a service provider, freelancer or a small entrepreneur, you must strongly oppose and protest this black rule</p>
<p>This blog post is also being sent to RBI, Banking Ombudsman, Ministry of Finance, Supreme Court of India<br />मेरी नज़रों में यह सिस्टम एक चर्बी वाला कारतूस है और मैं इसे मुंह लगाने से इन्कार करता हूँ</p>
<p>इधर जंगल का कानून चलता है …<br />हर ताक़तवर अपने से कम को मारकर जीता है… मारकर</p>
