Live Updates on Cryptocurrency Taxes in the Union Budget 2022


The crypto tax regime in India has finally arrived! The government has taken a conservative stance on crypto asset taxation, announcing a flat 30% tax on such income.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman stated in her Budget Speech 2022 that income from the transfer of virtual digital assets would be taxed at 30%. She also stated that no set off will be permitted in the event of a loss. Gifts of virtual digital assets would also be taxed in the recipient's hands.

The announcement of heavy tax on crypto income comes as a big disappointment for crypto investors. The Finance Minister also said that by 2023, a Blockchain-based and RBI-backed Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) will be introduced.

"The clarity on taxation of digital assets is long overdue and was expected to be supplied this year," Sundara Rajan TK, Partner at DVS Advisors LLP, stated in response to the statement. The government's announcement of a 30% tax on digital assets, coupled with the launch of its own digital currency, indicates that the government intends to discourage such investments, with the intention that only HNIs make such investments and that the government will not allow cryptos to be used as currency."


Cryptocurrency experts and investors were anticipating clarity on taxation of gains from crypto assets in Budget 2022. Some experts believe that Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will avoid directly addressing the cryptocurrency issue in her Budget Speech 2022. However, the Finance Minister was expected to make some crypto tax announcements.

The IRS will not tax unsold cryptocurrency tokens, which is a huge relief for cryptocurrency traders and miners.

 Crypto staking and mining enthusiasts can finally exhale a sigh of relief, as the IRS has decided not to tax unrealized gains from crypto staking or mining digital assets. This is a huge relief because many crypto supporters have been speaking out against these proposed taxes over the last few months. Blockworks' Casey Wagner was the first to report on this storey. She claims that a Nashville couple will receive a tax refund for unsold Tezos tokens staked on the blockchain network. This clarifies how cryptocurrencies that have been staked are taxed. According to people familiar with the situation, the IRS has offered the couple a refund for earned but unredeemed rewards. According to a legal complaint filed on May 26, 2021, Joshua and Jessica Jerrett requested a refund of $3,293 in income tax paid in 2019 for the receipt of 8,876 Tezos tokens in May 2021 with the US District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee. In addition, the couple requested a $500 increase in tax credit...

DogeCoin (DOGE) Overtakes Terra (Luna) As The World's 10th Largest Cryptocurrency

In terms of market capitalization, Dogecoin (DOGE) has surpassed Terra (LUNA) to become the tenth largest cryptocurrency. The switch follows the accompanying drama in the Terra ecosystem, which has seen the price of the LUNA tank plummet in recent days. LUNA has dropped 28.16 percent in the previous week and is now trading at more than 50% below its all-time high set in December. The battle for supremacy between DOGE and LUNA continues to heat up. According to CryptoRank, Dogecoin has surpassed Terra (LUNA) in market capitalization once again. DOGE has a market cap of roughly $18.22 billion, while LUNA has a market worth of around $18.20 billion. Market participants, on the other hand, are pointing out that the switch was caused by a panic selloff in the LUNA market, not by a boom in DOGE. In the last seven days, the price of DOGE has increased by 1.04 percent. In the same time period, however, LUNA has dropped 28.16 percent. According to Krypto Tribe tracker Santiment, the depletion h...

Solana (SOL) Price Prediction: Will the Price of Solana (SOL) Break $120 Next?

  On Saturday, the price of Solana (SOL) appears to be exhausted near the higher levels. As accumulation increases near the demand zone, buyers stayed committed to the coin for about $88.0. The price pushed near $115.0 due to the unwavering strong sentiment. After testing two-week highs, the price of Solana (SOL) halted. If SOL breaks through $120 in the near term, expect more gains. At $145.0, the price is still trading below the 200 DMA. The price of SOL is still under pressure around two-week highs. On the daily chart, the formation of "Doji" candlesticks on Thursday following the bulls' rejection near the higher levels indicates that investors are not ready to give up on the coin easily. In a retaliatory action, the price tested the same level once more. This is a critical trading level, and acceptance above $120 is required for traders to maintain upside momentum.
