Purpose code for Adsense Income in India (as per RBI Instructions)

Now Google Adsense has started EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) in India. Most of the publishers were waiting for that. But this EFT transfer came with a number of new things. One of them is the purpose code. Recently when i received a call from my bank regarding a funds transfer from a foreign country. At that time i was not aware of this Purpose Code, so i just told them that i am getting this money from Google Adsense as i display advertisements on my website. So the lady on the other side told me that it will come under Remittance. I just said "Ok". I don't know which purpose code is used. But then i started to search for it on Internet and came to know that i am not alone. A number of people received the similar calls from their banks.



But now i have got the answer. The correct purpose code for Google Adsense payment is P1007. You can verify it from the following RBI (Reserve Bank of India) document which shows a list of all purpose codes used for FOREX transactions.

Following link of a Google forum also verifies the Purpose code that i have provided you.

OpenXcom hits 1.0



We have previously mentioned OpenXcom on several occasions before, but now the massive UFO: Enemy Unknown engine reimplementation project finally hit the long-awaited 1.0 mark, and they decided to celebrate by releasing this lovely trailer that sums up quite well the insane amount of detail and improvement put into the project over the course of 4 years. I'll let it do justice by itself, but not without thanking all the contributors for raising one of the most acclaimed DOS-era strategy classics from the stagnating swamps of buggy unsupported legacy releases and platform incompatibility.
