Even I have faced same issue. It is nothing but a small gimmick to increase revenues indirectly by eBay. It will be better if the energies are concentrated on rather positive directions and avenues for revenue generation.
It is a fact that as the Paisapay is not accepting many major Indian Banks Debit Card for eg- SBI, many buyers prefer paying money directly to sellers using other online/methods which cuts down paisapay commission. So just to make sure that some 5% stays with eBay, this new tantrum has been thrown.
I do understand that their are some sellers who are bent on cheating buyers using these offline methods but why punish entire marketplace because of that, also giving the excuse of UPI's is really not correct. Also sellers should have been taken into confidence before such a big step.
Ya and one more thing, In case sellers want to accept offline methods, just mentioning on their listing description that if you dont have facility to use paisapay contact seller will do the trick.. that will help buyers. who cant use paisapay.

Dear Member,
In order to keep eBay Marketplace safe for our Buyer & Seller community,
we regularly review Buyers & Sellers activity on site. Your past selling
trend indicates that most Buyers who have purchased products listed on
eBay.in using a non PaisaPay payment method (i.e. Cheque, Demand draft ,
Cash on Delivery etc) do not end up paying you for their purchase. This
is resulting in your item ending sooner than they should have & also
results in you wasting your time & resources in filing a UPI against the
Buyer.
In order to help you grow your business on eBay.in, eBay has restricted
the payments methods which can be offered to your buyers. Henceforth you
will be able to only offer PaisaPay as payment method to your buyers.
You will not be able to list your item if you select any other payment
method in addition to PaisaPay. This restriction will be active for a
period of 45 days from the day it is placed on your account. Post the
time we will review and discuss with you for changes if required.
This will benefit your business on eBay.in in the following ways
•Your listing will not end prematurely due to purchases made by
frivolous buyers
•Only Buyers having the willingness to pay will be able to purchase the
products you have listed
•You need not waste your time & energies in filing UPI
Hope to see your business growing on eBay.in
Regards
eBay India
