How CoinSwitch keeps you TDS compliant ->
The Union Budget 2023, presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, introduced provisions on penalty and prosecution for non-deduction or non-payment of TDS (tax deduction at source) applied on Virtual Digital Assets.
As per the proposal (which will come into effect once the Parliament passes the Finance Bill) - a user (in the case of P2P transactions) or exchange could be penalized with a fine equivalent to the TDS amount by the tax department if the applicable TDS has not been deducted.
Further, the user (in the case of P2P transactions) or the exchange could face imprisonment of a minimum of 3 months to a maximum of 7 years if the deducted TDS is not deposited with the government.
But fret not: On CoinSwitch, we have ensured your crypto transactions are TDS-compliant. Since 1 July, 2022, CoinSwitch has deducted TDS on all applicable transactions, and we deposit this with the tax department against your name.
You can view the TDS deductions on the transaction note cum tax invoice that we provide for your transactions. You can download this via Orders & History page in the Portfolio section of the app.
