While cryptocurrency income in India is currently subject to a 30% tax, it has not been granted legal status. The 1% tax at source tax (TDS), will result in a tax deduction that begins July 1.
Notably, the Reserve Bank of India warned citizens about the dangers of using cryptocurrencies just weeks ago after (LUNA and stablecoin TerraUSD(UST)) collapsed. It warned that crypto could impact the country’s financial stability.
