This is to make your account verified and there is not much use of paypal account if it is unverified.

I don't think paypal give some credit limit, as paypal doest not give credit. There are sending money limit and withdrawl limit, for unverified account probably it is $500 for lifetime.

ICICI charges Foreign Currency transaction charges .. And then 12.5 % Service tax on all charges ..

SBI Card charged me INR 81.97 for that verification on 8 Aug .. And its also unclear what rate code ICICI use for FCY transactions ..
