Sir, I am freelancer and contacts unknown person, whoever is interested in taking loan, i refer his contact details with DSA.
After loan sacntion, I receive 1% comm from DSA, and I charge 2-3% comm from the customer directly.

Here, I want to know.....whether taking comm from customer directly is illegal?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores the legality of a freelancer charging a direct commission to customers for referring loan applications to a DSA. It clarifies that charging commission directly is generally not illegal, especially when an invoice is provided. Advice is given on how to phrase the commission on the invoice, suggesting terms like 'Commission for Loan Sanctioned' or 'Consulting Charges'. The appropriate SAC code for GST is identified as 9961, with a reminder to include a declaration if the freelancer is below the GST threshold.

If You are collecting the commission to the customers and given invoice then how is it illegal...?!

Hello Sir / Madam,

You can mention SAC code 9961 provided you are issuing GST invoice to customer. 

For more details, you are requested to contact on psandac @ gmail.com 

What should i mention in my invoice ..... 2% Commission for loan approved from abc Bank.
You can mention as Commission Charges or Consulting charges or any other related names...

Yes, you can mention "Commission for Loan Sanctioned".

If you are not liable for gst, then you need to mention even declaration for threshold limit.
