Is it legal to receive payment in India from youtube & FB


12-Mar-2023 (In Cyber Crime Law)
Hello Sir/Mam, I would like to ask you that which is illegal in India according to FEMA 1999, that to sending payment out of India or receiving payment from out of India. Because I heard that its illegal in India that to send any payment out of India because it affect the Forex Reserve, but can we legally receive from out of India (like from youtubes, facebook or other trading platforms etc.) which pay us in dollars, can this types of payment affect the Forex Reserve. And is it legal to receive this types of payment.

pay tax as per the income tax act under their respective heads. if u running channel on fb or youtube and receiving payment for it then ur income will b charged under head of income from other resources(foreign resources). Such incomes r completely legal. Well even if such trading plateform will pay u in dollars... when they will be recieved in ur account they will be received in indian dominations automatically. keep asking
