Can You Create Another Google AdSense Account Using HUF in India?
If you’re a blogger, YouTuber, or online business owner in India, you probably already know that Google AdSense strictly allows only one AdSense account per individual or entity.
Many creators wonder:
“If I have already one AdSense account in my personal name, can I create another one legally?”
The good news is Yes, you can — using a HUF (Hindu Undivided Family).
Let’s dive deep into how it works, step-by-step.
What is HUF (Hindu Undivided Family)?
HUF stands for Hindu Undivided Family — a unique legal structure recognized under Indian law.
- It consists of a common ancestor and all his male descendants, along with their wives and unmarried daughters.
- A HUF is treated as a separate legal entity for the purpose of taxation.
- A HUF gets its own PAN card, can own assets, and can even open bank accounts separately from the members of the family.
👉 Most important point:
A HUF is different from you as an individual.
Therefore, a HUF can have a separate AdSense account with its own PAN, bank account, and Gmail ID.
Why Can’t You Just Create Two AdSense Accounts Personally?
- Google AdSense policy clearly mentions: “You may only maintain one AdSense account under the same payee name.”
- If you try to create another AdSense account using your personal PAN again,
- Google may reject the application, or
- If somehow approved, both accounts might get disabled later when a PAN mismatch check happens.
- Hence, legally separating entities (Individual and HUF) is the safe and compliant way.
How to Legally Open a Second AdSense Account Using HUF
Here’s a full step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Create a HUF (If not already existing)
To form a HUF, you need:
- A HUF Deed (a legal document declaring the formation of the HUF)
- Application for PAN for the HUF
You can easily get a HUF Deed made by a chartered accountant (CA) for ₹1000-₹3000.
Step 2: Apply for a HUF PAN Card
Documents required for HUF PAN:
- Copy of HUF Deed
- Address proof (could be the Karta’s address)
- Identity proof of the Karta (usually head of the family, often the eldest male member)
👉 Apply via NSDL or UTIITSL online portal.
Processing time: ~15 days.
Step 3: Open a Bank Account in the HUF’s Name
You will need:
- HUF PAN card
- HUF Deed
- Karta’s photo and KYC documents
The account will be named something like:
“Rajesh Kumar (HUF)”
Step 4: Create a New Gmail ID (Recommended)
While it’s not mandatory to have a new Gmail, it’s better to create a fresh Gmail ID for HUF operations to avoid confusion later.
Example: EXAMPLErajeshkumarhuf@gmail.com
Step 5: Apply for a New AdSense Account
Now visit Google AdSense and apply:
Real-Life Example
Aspect | Personal AdSense | HUF AdSense |
---|---|---|
Name | Rajesh Kumar | Rajesh Kumar (HUF) |
PAN | ABCDE1234F | AABHR1234G |
Bank Account | Rajesh Kumar | Rajesh Kumar (HUF) |
examplerajeshpersonal@gmail.com | examplerajeshhuf@gmail.com | |
Websites Managed | exampletechbyrajesh.com | examplefamilyinvestments.in |
✅ Both AdSense accounts are legal and safe because they are separate taxable entities.
Important Points to Remember
- Declaration of Ownership: The websites or YouTube channels linked to the HUF AdSense should ideally be mentioned as owned/managed by the HUF (to avoid confusion).
- Tax Filing: You must file separate ITRs every year for your HUF income and your personal income.
- Google Payment: Payments will go directly into the HUF bank account, and TDS (if applicable) will also be against HUF PAN.
Advantages of Using HUF for AdSense
- Legal second AdSense account — no risk of ban
- Tax benefits — separate basic exemption limit for HUF
- Income separation — personal and family earnings neatly separated
- Professionalism — Good for building a business structure around blogging, websites, or YouTube channels
Possible Disadvantages
- Complexity — You have to maintain HUF accounts separately (bookkeeping, taxation).
- Limited use case — Only Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs can create HUFs under Indian law.
- Ownership clarity — You must be careful about which entity owns what (personal vs HUF).
Conclusion
✅ Yes, you can create a second Google AdSense account legally by forming a HUF.
✅ HUF is a recognized separate entity with its own PAN and bank account, making it 100% compliant with AdSense policies and Indian tax laws.
✅ It’s a smart way for bloggers, YouTubers, and website owners to grow their digital empire without violating rules.
