The Indian government revealed no immediate plans to regulate the sales and purchase of cryptocurrencies as it continues to tighten oversight on crypto-related money laundering and terror financing.<\/p>\n

During a parliamentary meeting on Aug. 5, Pankaj Chaudhary, the Minister of State in India\u2019s Ministry of Finance, responded to several questions detailing the nation\u2019s current stance on crypto regulations.<\/p>\n

Chaudhary said that India has not conducted any study or research to understand the adoption level of cryptocurrencies among its citizens. He responded by saying that:<\/p>\n

\u201cCrypto assets or Virtual Digital Assets (VDAs) are unregulated in India and the government does not collect data on these assets.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

India will tax crypto, not regulate it<\/h2>\n

Although India officially implemented a tax system for cryptocurrency transfers and profits on April 1, 2022, the government has no plans to regulate the sale and purchase of cryptocurrencies. Under India\u2019s crypto law, citizens are required to pay a 30% tax on unrealized crypto gains and a 1% tax deducted at source (TDS).<\/p>\n

Chaudhary highlighted India\u2019s ongoing efforts toward Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) in crypto. Earlier in January, India banned several offshore crypto exchanges for noncompliance with local regulations, including Binance, KuCoin, Bitget, Huobi, OKX, Gate.io and MEXC.<\/p>\n

However, the nation has no plans to regulate crypto purchases and sales. Chaudhary added:<\/p>\n

\u201cCurrently, there is no proposal to bring legislation for regulating the sales and purchase of virtual digital assets in the country.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ongoing efforts to curb illicit crypto activities<\/h2>\n

He also reminded that India had pushed for a coordinated effort from all G20 nations to curb the illicit use of cryptocurrencies globally during its 2023 presidency.<\/p>\n

Binance\u2019s plan to reenter India after paying a $2 million fine for noncompliance was recently met with a roadblock.<\/p>\n

On Aug. 6, the Directorate General of Goods and Service Tax Intelligence (DGGI) \u2014 an Indian law enforcement agency \u2014 demanded 722 crore Indian rupees ($86 million) in unpaid taxes from Binance.<\/p>\n

Indian authorities had sent email notices to Binance offices in Seychelles, the Cayman Islands and Switzerland, which the crypto exchange ignored. However, Binance later appointed a local counsel to officially resolve its tax obligations.<\/p>\n
