What I mean is, say you didn't have much money at all, and then you had your payment by paypal where they took about $30.00 for fees. Now say if you would have got a check and had to pay $5 for the fees, a check would have been better. But then again, waiting for the check to arrive and clear could take anywhere from 1 week to 2 months. Now by the time you have waited there, you could have already re-invested that money that you would have got from paypal and made much more than what you would have lost in the fees during that time of waiting.
If you are running rather smoothly though and have some capital behind you, then I would prefer to receive earnings by check or direct deposit depending on which one is the cheapest.

I guess because I'm in the US I don't really run into this problems. All of my checks clear my bank within a few days. I try to use Paypal as a last resort only, mostly just for Ebay auctions. I guess I can see how being in India would take forever for your check to clear, but for me the bottom line is most important and I'm trying to maximize my profits by avoiding fees as much as possible.
