I had my account earlier on Paypal with the same email. I paid some amount to the merchant via debit card added in PayPal. Today I asked for the refund and they said the refund was processed. I created a new account with the same email, will I get the refund back on my card or not?

If you funded the original Paypal payment to the seller from your bank account or a card then once marked refunded/completed it will automatically go back to that bank account or card.
Normally it can take a few days up to a week to go back to a bank account and a bit longer for a card, Paypal say allow 30 days for a card (1 billing cycle) but its rarely that long.
(Can vary according to country though).

I know that @kernowlass 

 

But will it happen if my account was deleted after purchase and to take refund I created new account. So cronologically

 

1. Account created

2. Made purchase with debit card

3. Delete Paypal account

4. After some days, created Paypal account

5. Asked for refund, and got accepted
