Just a quick note! We pay GST on your voluntary payments, so we need a few details for our records. We share the data with Razorpay strictly for invoicing purposes. If you'd like a GST invoice, please include your GST number.

  • To retain your anonymity, we’ve filled the next Razorpay form that follows with a dummy mobile number (9999999999).
  • You have the option to replace it with your own mobile number, in case you prefer transactional convenience. Or simply continue with the pre-filled mobile number.
  • Be rest assured, either way, this will have no bearing on the successful completion of your transaction.
