India' decision on crypto will come in agreement with Central Bank 2

Once again needle is moving toward the crypto ban according to the latest statement by Indian finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman. 

At present Crypto is under the gray region and the Indian crypto industry is in hope that India will bring a better legislation-based framework to regulate the crypto industry. However, the Indian crypto community got some better hints of crypto regulation but at the same time, some negative news is degrading confidence. 

On Monday, Nirmala Sitharaman, finance minister of India, stated that all the decisions on the Crypto regulation/ban will be taken under the collaborative approach of the Indian government with the Reserve Bank of India. 

“complete harmony” and any decision on cryptocurrency will be made jointly.”

However, it is 100% clear that the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) was already ensured to develop and launch its Indian CBDC but every time RBI officials declared a negative decision and stances against the crypto industry. 

In the past, RBI imposed a ban on all banks of India to provide their banking services to crypto companies. After that crypto experts filed a case against the RBI decision. Later the Supreme court ordered to revoke the ban. 

Only one hope for the Indian crypto community 

In the first week of this month, the Indian finance minister declared a crypto tax bill during the parliament budget session. Under the crypto tax Bill, all the revenue generated on crypto transactions will go through 30% tax and 1% TDS. 

Now the majority of the experts fully believe that India will not try to impose a ban because if India has plans to ban then they will do any kind of additional work and also they will not create any type of legislation or framework for this industry. 

Last Saturday, Union minister Bhagwat Karad clearly said that crypto is still outside the laws, and taxation on the crypto doesn’t mean that crypto assets are legal.
