Magento 1.9 - Observer condition not working for Guest Customer

[Aveeva]

My condition: Selected Payment Gateway Eligible only for a selected customer group, id 9.

My observer:

<?php
class Gta_FilterPaymentGateway_Model_Observer
{
public function paymenter(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
{
$currentCustomerGroup = (int)Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomerGroupId();
if(Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->isLoggedIn())
{
if (($observer->getMethodInstance()->getCode() == 'paytm_cc') && ($currentCustomerGroup !== 9)) 
{
$result = $observer->getResult();
$result->isAvailable = false;
}
}
}
}

Here i can set PayTM payment Gateway only for customer group 9, but guest customer also eligible to pay via PayTM payment gateway, how to restrict for guest customer also?

Hi @Aveeva 

Remove following condition from your code

if(Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->isLoggedIn())

You are checking only for logged in customer. After removing it the code will work for guest users also.

@Mukesh Tiwari  Yes i removed, Guest Customer Default Id is 0 using this,

<?php
class Gta_FilterPaymentGateway_Model_Observer
{
	public function paymenter(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
	{
		$currentCustomerGroup = (int)Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomerGroupId();
   
			if (($observer->getMethodInstance()->getCode() == 'paytm_cc') && ($currentCustomerGroup !== 9) || ($currentCustomerGroup != 0)) 
			{
				$result = $observer->getResult();
				$result->isAvailable = false;
			}	
	}
}

Still getting an error, i want Guest customer not able to pay PayTm Payment method.
