📌 Indian crypto tax
Many people in India trade crypto without knowing these 4 rules:
1ïžâƒŁ Profits are taxed at a flat 30% (plus 4% cess). It makes no difference whether you hold for a day or a year.
2ïžâƒŁ You can only deduct the cost of buying. Fees, internet and other expenses don't count.
3ïžâƒŁ Losses can't be set off against other income, and they can't be carried forward.
4ïžâƒŁ There is a 1% TDS on sales. It's not an extra tax. It's an advance that appears in your tax records.
Report everything under Schedule VDA in your ITR, even if you made a loss.
Do you track your trades, or do you plan to figure it out at filing time? 👇

Not financial or tax advice. Check with a CA for your case.
Losses on VDA transactions can't be set off against other income or carried forward, and Schedule VDA reporting is mandatory from FY 2025-26. The 30% tax and 1% TDS were still in effect as of the latest 2026 guide I found. Tax rules can change, so skim the Binance Square terms and any new CBDT notifications before posting.
