Tax Treatment in India

India introduced a specific tax framework for Virtual Digital Assets (VDAs) including cryptocurrencies effective April 1, 2022. All gains from the transfer of VDAs are taxed at a flat 30% (plus applicable surcharge and cess), with no deduction allowed except the cost of acquisition. No set-off of losses against other income or carry-forward of crypto losses is permitted.
