Dont worry tuxian.. They send u cheque once your account reaches 100$.. cool na.. (Even i dont have a PAN no)..

Google Ad-sense is perfectly legal in India. You can surely receive payments in US dollars or any other currency as long as it comes from existing valid banking channels.

PAN is necessary when you have to file your income tax returns (and also for various other reasons like opening a bank account, etc.). It is not necessarily for receiving money from abroad. But even if you have low income, there are six crietrias. Its called One by six scheme. If you fall under any one of them, you will have to file your return. These criterias are:

1. Mobile Phone
2. Credit Card
3. Club Membership
4. Foreign Travel
5. Owning a motor vehicle (not a two wheeler)
6. Occupying an immovable property as an owner or a tenant of specified area. Specified area differs from city to city.

can I recieve payments even without giving pan info, coz, I am student, and I don't pay taxes, though I have mobile phone! but, not others.

I have applied on dad's name for my 2 blogs. I too am a student(only 16). You just have to give out all ur info once ur application is approved and state that u have nothing to do with the US. Thats all , they cant tax you.

Thanks to all u guys I have started Ad-sense ads on my site. I applied and the next day my site was accepted and the site was up with ads, it was really fast

Congrats! Now start getting some good traffic

For adsense the simple formula to earn money is

traffic = money

You need a working website which fullfills all the adsense requirements.

You need a decent website to get Adsense. Just don't put those "Earn by running toolbar" etc ads on ur site.. and u'll be just fine

Right tks for ur replies. I dont have a website of my own.

Is there any other option for earning for those who dont have websites ??

D

also can i put a SHORT URL in the details of AdSense?

G

i recently registered in to adsense . now it is displayed in my account that your payment is hold until you send your taxation information . now i dont have any such info or like that..

can anyone tell me how can it would be possible to unhold payment without filling tax forms .

well me too was getting this message though the amount was meagre.

Anyways for this warning to go away you need to confirm somewhere once you log in (Dont rem will check and tell you) that you are not a US citizen and your business is not based in US. Once you do this the message goes off.

I strongly recommend you to read the rules and regulations and online help as its got most answers.

@sr ultimate "You need a working website which fullfills all the adsense requirements."

He was CORRECT at the time. Because the post was made on Feb 09, 2005. Before BUDGET 2005.

@TuxiaN. Here is the link. I can give a link from Income tax department website. But it will be so dry.

We had 2 meteres in our office. We kept getting bill for one meter, they never bothered to raise the bill for second meter for 2.5 yrs in spite of repeated reminder and then raised 2 bills of 36000 and 93000 within a span of 6 months :evil:

We anyway are IT assessee's. But what if someone has to file the return only because if the laziness of electricity department? This condition is pretty unfair

I accept tuxfan.

See from another angle. The Electricity tariff differs from state to state and UTs. For consumption of same no. of Units different people in different state will pay different amount. The Income Tax Act being a Central Act, should not differenciate citizens based on residency.

So I think electricity consumed and not charges paid should be criteria. Some states will have problems cited by you also.

I think this will defnitely be challanged before Court.

BTW, how to copy and paste previous posting with White Backgrond? Anyone can help me? :cry:
