Indian crypto trading volumes slump following hefty taxes
Trading volume on three major Indian crypto exchanges plummeted 72.5% on average since July 1, when a 1% tax per transaction was enforced in the country.
The Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) came into effect on July 1 and appears to have negatively affected traders as exchange volumes dropped from 37.4% on BitBNS and 90.9% on CoinDCX by July 3. Volumes have stabilized slightly since hitting lows but are still down 56.8% on average, according to CoinGecko.
