Buy Tether
in India

Tether is the first stablecoin in the crypto world, launched in July 2014. Like other stablecoins, Tether's price is tied to the price of USD. It means every Tether is always $1. It is also called USDT, which means USD Tether. The stable price of Tether makes it a great alternative to USD in the online world. People can easily use their Tether to purchase other coins. Although the Tether price is always stable, it fell to $096 once in May 2022. However, that didn’t impact its market because very soon it rebounded to $1.
Tether is not an investment like other coins. Since its price is stable, nothing can happen in the future. But people buy Tethers for other reasons. One of them is trading it with other coins whenever they want. The other reason is to avoid the volatility of the crypto market. Traders and investors usually trade their coins with Tether when the crypto market seems unstable or collapsing. Therefore, they can keep their digital assets safe from this risky world. Then, when the market stabilizes, they again trade their tether with other coins that seem to have a better future. Thus, Tether is not considered an investment but can help traders in difficult times.

Tether was launched on a platform called Omni via a blockchain company called Tether Holdings Limited. The Omni platform is a sub-layer of the Bitcoin blockchain. Tether was then released as an ERC-20 coin on the Ethereum blockchain.

Yes, it is allowed to trade, buy and sell cryptocurrency in India. In March 2020 the Supreme
Court of India issued a case on the regulation and acknowledgment of the use of digital
currency inside the country. As stated in the above-mentioned document “Technological
innovations, including those underlying virtual currencies, have the potential to improve the
efficiency and inclusiveness of the financial system.” Since then, the Indian government has
been considering the creation of a new legal framework for cryptocurrencies.

Yes, cryptocurrencies are taxed in India. Before 2022, the Indian government did not have a
clear stance on the classification and taxation of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. However,
recently the Indian authorities recognized cryptocurrencies as Virtual Digital Assets (VDAs) and
established a tax framework for them. This is the first time that cryptocurrencies have been
acknowledged and taxed in India, as the Income Tax Department (ITD) introduced a new
section, Section 2(47A), into the Income Tax Act to define the term Virtual Digital Assets (VDAs)
and the regulations around its taxation. The definition is comprehensive and encompasses
various types of crypto assets, including cryptocurrencies, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), tokens,
and others.
According to the above-mentioned Tax Act, if you engage in cryptocurrency trading, selling, or
spending, you will be subject to a 30% tax on any profits you make. Additionally, if you sell
crypto assets that are worth more than INR 50,000 in a single financial year, you will also be
subject to a 1% Tax Deducted at Source (TDS). Furthermore, if you are seen as earning income
from other sources in cryptocurrencies, you may also be required to pay income tax at your
individual tax rate. In conclusion, you may be required to pay a 30% tax on the following
cryptocurrency transactions: Selling cryptocurrencies for Indian Rupees or another fiat currency,
Trading cryptocurrencies for other cryptocurrencies (including stable coins), Using
cryptocurrencies to purchase goods and services.
It is important to note that the tax treatment of cryptocurrencies in India may change in the
future as the government continues to consider new regulations. We would recommend
consulting a local tax expert or financial advisor for the most up-to-date information on the tax
treatment of cryptocurrencies in India.
