Tokenomics & On-chain

How are crypto staking rewards reported and taxed under the 30% slab in India?

In India, crypto staking rewards are generally treated as income from virtual digital assets, and gains on their disposal fall under the flat 30% tax on VDA income, plus applicable surcharge and cess, with a 1% TDS on transfers above set thresholds. Reporting typically captures the reward's value when received and again on sale. For example, tokens earned from staking are recorded at fair value on receipt, and any later gain on selling them is taxed at 30%. Rules evolve and individual situations differ, so confirm treatment with a qualified tax professional.
