So I contacted Paypal and they were telling me that they have no issues on their side and it was probably from the card issuer (aka bank) that was causing the problem while the bank was telling me my debit card was already capable for international transaction. I also tried 2 other debit cards capable for international transaction and all of them faced same issue.

For context, doing a 10 Euro (around 817.69 Indian Rupees) transfer to someone would actually cost me around 21 euros after including taxes! (or around 1700 Indian Rupees) +Hence why I found Paypal to be quite appealing as I can easily do international transaction without too much additional cost just by using my debit card.
