The legal status of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in India is unclear.
The Reserve Bank of India banned banks from dealing with cryptocurrencies in 2018.
In March 2020, the Indian Supreme Court lifted the ban, stating it was unconstitutional.
In 2021, the Indian government proposed a bill to ban private cryptocurrencies and introduce a digital rupee issued by the Reserve Bank of India.
Some Indian states have shown interest in adopting cryptocurrency technology, such as Uttar Pradesh's plan to use blockchain for land registry.
Despite these developments, the future of cryptocurrency regulation in India remains uncertain.
It is advisable to stay informed of the latest regulatory developments and seek professional advice before engaging in cryptocurrency-related activities in India.
