India\u2019s Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has collected more than 100 crore INR ($12 million) from one percent TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on crypto transactions in this financial year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Indian government had implemented one percent direct tax on all crypto transactions from July 1, 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In an interview with ANI, the tax body\u2019s chairman revealed that they have collected over 700 crore INR ($84 million) in TDS during the current financial year from online gaming companies and crypto transactions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Over 12$ million was collected from taxes on crypto.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, this TDS collection does not include income tax received by the government on transfer of crypto that is placed at 30 per cent.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tax Imposed After \u201cPhenomenal Increase\u201d in Crypto Transactions<\/h2>\n

Though crypto regulations in India remain unclear as of now, the central government has imposed heavy taxes in order to curb unsupervised crypto\u2019s adoption in the world\u2019s most populated country.<\/p>\n

In her 2022-23 Budget speech, India\u2019s Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced one percent TDS on crypto transactions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She cited \u201cphenomenal increase\u201d in crypto transactions as a reason for a specific tax regime.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the same time, she proposed taxing income from the transfer of any virtual digital asset at 30 per cent.<\/p>\n

The central government of India has significantly changed its stance on crypto regulations in the last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The government has gone from calling for a complete ban on crypto to promoting a global framework for regulating the nascent industry.\u00a0<\/p>\n

India Witnesses Massive Crypto Adoption Despite Heavy Taxes<\/h2>\n

India has ranked number 1 in Chinalaysis Global Crypto Index. The Global Crypto Adoption Index evaluated more than 150 countries based on several metrics to evaluate grassroots adoption of cryptocurrency in which the Asian country was ranked at top.<\/p>\n

Earlier in an interview with CryptoNews, Chief Public Policy Officer at Indian crypto exchange CoinDCX, Kiran Mysore Vivekananda, said that the government\u2019s purpose of introducing TDS has failed given the massive rise in crypto adoption in the country.<\/p>\n

He argued that the purpose of introducing TDS was to discourage people from investing in cryptocurrencies, which did not work.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
