India again holds the position of the largest crypto user globally despite the two challenges of regulation and high taxes.
CEXs are the most frequently presented in the market of India and serve as an intermediate between different types of investors.
Some decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms have started popping out in India to provide complicated financial tools.
India has once again held its place as the biggest consumer of cryptocurrencies in the world for the second year. Despite regulatory actions against crypto and high taxes,it still emerged the second. But then the government has imposed a 30% tax on income from cryptocurrencies and 1% TDS on every transaction. Though the craze for Bitcoins and other such assets does not seem to have waned in India.

The country has therefore revealed high usage of central and decentralized financial platforms. This marks a shift that ignores the factors that define its complexity in the current market.
Strong Adoption of Centralized Finance
Another important factor that contributes to increased cryptocurrency adoption in India is the high dependence on centralized financial institutions. CEXs continue to dominate the Indian market today where users can easily purchase, sell, and exchange cryptocurrencies.
These are not as complex as the former ones and this enables the average investor to participate in the crypto market. In addition, there is a growing increase in the use of cryptocurrencies supported by Indian exchanges including WazirX and CoinDCX for many users.
Decentralized Finance broadens Despite Legislation
In addition to the centralized platforms, decentralized finance has also rapidly developed in the country. The decentralized finance platforms, which grant access to financial products like lending and trading without involving intermediaries, have become popular despite regulation problems. The growth in the number of users of these platforms is due to the fact that they are versatile. Also,they avoid some of the limitations that exist in centralized exchanges, especially in India.
The interest towards DeFi in India shows that there is more desire for sophisticated financial products in the cryptocurrency market. India will likely move to regulate the cryptocurrency market despite the variety in the global adoption rate.Nonetheless, the Indian crypto users stand tall, and there is no evidence of their number reducing any time soon.
