It is important to understand how other Crypto assets will be taxed and whether there will be any specific benefit given to the Digital Rupee. With no deduction for cost, tax rate at 30%, tax on mining/gifting and no offset of loss against income from other sources, the FM has announced the much-needed clarity on crypto transactions. However, tracking such transactions in the absence of a central regulator may be challenging,” said Pranay Bhatia, Partner and Leader – Tax and Regulatory Services, BDO India.
