About this tool
Flat 30% VDA tax under Section 115BBH plus 1% TDS under 194S, with per-trade gains and losses that cannot be set off.
The Crypto Tax Calculator India applies India's virtual digital asset rules to your trades: a flat 30% tax on every profitable transfer under Section 115BBH, plus surcharge and 4% health and education cess, and the separate 1% TDS under Section 194S on the sale consideration. Because losses on one coin cannot be set off against gains on another, it lists each trade separately and shows how much of your real profit is taxed anyway. It is aimed at Indian residents trading on exchanges or peer-to-peer.

Click "Add trade" and enter each asset with its "Cost of acquisition (INR)" and "Sale consideration (INR)".
Set the Section 194S threshold that applies to you (₹50,000, ₹10,000 or none), your surcharge band, and any TDS already deducted or gifted crypto.
Read the total tax at 30% plus surcharge and 4% cess, the 1% TDS and the balance to pay, then click "Copy result".
Losing trades are shown but excluded from taxable income, exactly as Section 115BBH requires.
The 1% TDS on turnover is calculated apart from the 30% tax and credited against the final liability.
Adds the surcharge band for your income level and the 4% cess so the number matches your return.
Income from transferring a virtual digital asset is taxed at a flat 30% under Section 115BBH, plus applicable surcharge and 4% cess. Only the cost of acquisition is deductible — exchange fees, gas fees and interest are not.
No. A loss on one virtual digital asset cannot be set off against a gain on another, cannot be set off against any other income, and cannot be carried forward to a later year.
On the consideration for a transfer once the yearly value crosses ₹50,000 for individuals and HUFs whose accounts are not audited, and ₹10,000 for everyone else. Indian exchanges deduct it automatically; in peer-to-peer trades the buyer must deduct it.
Yes. A virtual digital asset received without consideration is taxed in the recipient's hands, and a later sale is taxed again at 30% on the gain over that value. Gifts from specified relatives are exempt.
