Tax notices to cryptocurrency investors in india 2018 because trading hits 21,000Crore
Back in India, the Bitcoin picture is still unclear. While SEBI has made a remark over the Bitcoin regulation, the IT department is set to issue notices to over 500K Bitcoin traders across the country. * Trading on crypto exchanges cross 21,000Crore in India- official * Tax dept seeks payment of tax on capital gains * Govt may introduce a bill to regulate crypto currencies — Source * Govt likens cryptocurrencies to ‘Ponzi schemes’, warns investors By Rupam Jain and Manoj Kumar NEW DELHI, Jan 19 (Reuters) — India has sent tax notices to tens of thousands of people dealing in cryptocurrency after a nationwide survey showed more than $3.5 billion worth of transactions have been conducted over a 17-month period, the income tax department said. Tech-savvy young investors, real estate players and jewellers are among those invested in bitcoin and other virtual currencies, tax officials told Reuters after gathering data from nine exchanges in Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Pune and Surat. Collecting over 2 Mn Bitcoin traders’ details from exchanges, the IT department in India is set to issue notices to around 400K-500K HNIs(high net worth individuals) for trading Bitcoins in significant numbers without paying any tax over the gains. Governments around the world are grappling with how to regulate cryptocurrency trading, and policymakers are expected to discuss the matter at a G20 summit in Argentina in March. The Indian government has issued repeated warnings against digital currency investments, saying these were like “Ponzi schemes” that offer unusually high returns to early investors. it has not so far imposed curbs on an industry estimated to be adding 200,000 users in India every month. B.R. Balakrishnan, a director general of investigations at the income tax department in the southern state of Karnataka, said notices were sent following the survey to assess the penetration and patterns of virtual currency trade. “We cannot turn a blind eye. It would have been disastrous to wait until the final verdict was out on its legality,” he told Reuters. The tax department has asked people dealing in bitcoin and other virtual currencies such as ethereum and ripple to pay tax on capital gains. They have also asked for details about their total holdings and the source of funds in the tax notice seen by Reuters. “We found that investors were not reflecting it on their tax returns and in many cases, the investment was not accounted for,” Balakrishnan said. Bitcoin, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency, soared more than 1,700 percent last year, hitting a record high just shy of $20,000 as institutional and retail investors around the world snapped up the virtual currency. Its huge gains have attracted the attention of global regulators tasked with protecting investors from fraud. In recent weeks, Japan and China have made noises about a regulatory crackdown, while South Korean policymakers said they were considering shutting down domestic virtual currency exchanges. REGULATION An Indian finance ministry official said a federal committee was looking into the possibility of imposing restrictions on virtual currencies and that eventually parliament would have to legislate a regulatory regime. Officials at Zebpay, India’s leading bitcoin exchange, said the industry was adding near 200,000 users every month with an estimated trade volume of about 20 billion Indian rupees ($315 million). “Many of our customers are treating digital currency like gold,” said Zebpay co-founder Saurabh Agarwal. Aman Kalra, marketing head of Coinsecure, a bitcoin exchange in New Delhi, said more than 150 bitcoins were changing hands every week through its platform. The company has 100,000 registered users and is now launching a platform to sell ethereum and other digital currencies. “I don’t think anyone in the government or Govt. official in india should label our business as a ‘Ponzi scheme’, we are not doing anything illegal,” said Ronak (WhiteMoney Exchange). Surat, Jan17, Bitcoin wallet firm WhiteMoney today said it has crossed Rs 40crore turnover within 3 months of operations as more Indians are going for the digital currency. “In only 3 months, the company has crossed 50 crore turnover” WhiteMoney said in a statement. Bitcoins are digital money and their value is determined on the basis of their demand and supply. The digtal money is limited in numbers. Only 21 million Bitcoins can be generated globally and they can be traded even in fractions, up to eight decimals. Last bitcoin will be generated in 2140 but 99 per cent would be already there by 2040. Tax inspectors said they sought help from experts in blockchain, the technology that underpins bitcoin, to conduct the survey. In some cases, tax officials themselves participated in the trade to identify loopholes after they found investors had poured in billions of dollars through unregulated exchanges. The biggest worry for New Delhi, the finance ministry official said, was how to protect investors trading on offshore exchanges. Already hundreds of investors have gone to the police and courts with complaints of transactions in virtual currencies that turned out to be fraudulent, said Pavan Duggal, a Supreme Court lawyer specialising in cybercrimes. “Considering cryptocurrencies are here to stay, the government must consider granting limited legality while ensuring that these are not used for crypto crimes,” he said.

FORGET THE WEDDING REGISTRY – THIS BRIDE- AND GROOM-TO-BE ONLY WANT BITCOIN
When Prashant Sharma and Niti Shree met four years ago, the price of Bitcoin was less than $300 per coin. Bonding over a shared love of start-ups and new technologies, the couple’s romance blossomed and their love, like the digital currency, has been growing ever since. They are getting married today, and, in true crypto-enthusiast fashion, have requested Bitcoin – and only Bitcoin – as wedding gifts. Prashant Sharma and Niti Shree, both 28, have decided to buck tradition and have requested that their friends and family gift them with the popular cryptocurrency instead the of flowers, dinner sets, linens, and other items that make up the flotsam and jetsam of newlywed life. They even contacted Indian cryptocurrency exchange Zebpay, who are helping them set up a “Bitcoin booth”, complete with staff standing by to walk guests through the process of buying and sending bitcoin. With the price of Bitcoin reaching one new all-time high after another this week, and likely continuing to climb next week as the new roll-out of Bitcoin futures trading in the US thrusts the digital currency firmly into the mainstream spotlight, a gift of bitcoin tomorrow could well be worth much more a few months or a year from now. But lest readers think that Sharma and Shree are hoping to get rich on the backs of their family and friends, the couple has stated that they plan to use the gifts “for the education and uplift of underprivileged kids and other CSR activities.” AH… CRYPTO LOVE To those that know the couple well, their decision makes perfect sense. Sharma and Shree, co-founders of Offrd, a specialized hiring platform for non-tech jobs, are avid cryptocurrency enthusiasts. In an interview with Quartz India, Sharma recounted how they came up with the idea. As he was mulling over the wedding checklist, he started thinking about the wedding gifts and how he didn’t want a bunch of ‘stuff’ that they would likely never use just lying around the house. Then, inspiration struck: Suddenly this idea struck me. What if I bring a dash of technology in the conventional marriage set-up and accept bitcoin as gifts? After talking it over with his bride-to-be, the decision was made. But it was about more than just being different. Shree explained: When we decided to get married, we decided we wanted to promote the technology we like. And since not everyone is familiar with bitcoins, we had the details of how to go about it on our wedding invites. The wedding gifts aren’t the only part of the wedding getting the crypto treatment, either. In addition to the couple’s request, the wedding decor will include orange and yellow flowers as well as amusing one-liners and anecdotes about Bitcoin. Fancy a drink at the bar? They even have crypto-themed drinks – Ethereum, Monero, Ripple, and Litecoin – just for the occasion. Do you think the couple’s request for Bitcoin-only gifts was rude or unusual? If you had your choice of gifts, would you choose Bitcoin? Let us know in the comments below.

India's Demonetization Is Causing Bitcoin To Surge Inside The Country
This is an automatic summary, original reduced by 72%.
Since the early days of demonetization, bitcoin prices in India have been hovering in an upper range of $866 to $896 a piece; in a mere 18 days after the demonetization speech of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the price of bitcoins on Zebpay, which claims to have over 130,000 users, had surged from $757 to $1,020, whereas in the U.S., bitcoins are trending at $770 apiece, marking a clear premium on the Indian bitcoin exchanges. In the past month, out of about 20 bitcoin startups, the country's three funded bitcoin trading platforms - ZebPay, Unocoin, and Coinsecure - have registered a surge in new users willing to experiment with the crypto currency as an alternative asset class. In India, only a few companies accept bitcoin payments, and that too as indirect transactions made through the exchanges. The Ahmedabad-based bitcoin wallet and exchange has added 50,000 new users in November, higher than its typical monthly average of 20,000 new users. The Indian government's resolve to work on bitcoin and the blockchain framework before 2018, along with the growing awareness of bitcoin in the world's second most populated country could push it to a tipping point. As merchants have started accepting bitcoin payments since the asset can be liquidated with a small transaction fee of 1%, bitcoin has emerged as an investment alternative that is affordable and efficient.
