Letters sent out to the finance ministry last month by Bharat Web3 Association and CoinDCX highlighted concerns over the 30 percent VDA tax burdening small Web3 and crypto businesses and the need for a level playing field by bringing offshore exchanges under TDS regulations.This comes at a time when the Indian crypto sector has already started seeing some regulatory green shoots, with the finance ministry sending show-cause notices to offshore exchanges, which are not registered with the Financial Intelligence Unit-India (FIU-IND), and blocking their URLs.BWA’s current members include infrastructure providers such as Polygon and Biconomy; crypto exchanges such as CoinDCX and CoinSwitch; virtual gaming platform Hike; and other Web3 players such as Liminal and Tax Nodes.According to a note accessed by Moneycontrol, BWA’s asks include “reduction in the rate of TDS on transfer of VDAs (virtual digital assets) to 0.01% from 1%; specifically including foreign exchanges in the scope of TDS, and reexamining the flat rate of 30% applicable to income from the transfer of VDAs.”The note also said the existing taxation framework has “not achieved the intended purpose of enabling VDA transactions to be monitored.”—————🇮🇳JUST IN: Indian Finance Minister has announced that there will be no changes indirect or indirect taxes.Follow
