Is every crypto transfer taxable in India?

Taxability depends on the nature of the transfer and current VDA rules. We classify your facts before computing — do not assume “HODL forever = never disclose.”

Which sections apply under the 1961 Act vs the 2025 Act?

Through 31 March 2026, cite Section 115BBH (special rate) and Section 194S (TDS) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. From 1 April 2026, cite Section 194 Table S. No. 4 and Section 393(1) [Table Sl. No. 8(vi)] of the Income-tax Act, 2025. Substance of the regime is carried forward.

Can I set off crypto losses against salary?

Under the VDA special regime, loss set-off is tightly restricted. We apply the statute as written and document the position.

Do you recommend exchanges or coins?

No. This guide and the related service are tax and compliance only — not investment or trading advice.

WhatsApp +91-8882913461 or use Talk to an Expert. Share exchange CSVs (or a list of platforms used) and whether you paid anyone for a VDA transfer in the year.
