In India, the taxation of cryptocurrencies has been a topic of keen interest and debate. As a financial practitioner specializing in cryptocurrencies, I've noticed that the Indian government has implemented specific measures to regulate the taxation of digital assets. Could you elaborate on how cryptocurrencies are taxed in India? Specifically, I'm curious about the capital gains tax rate, the applicability of TDS (Tax Deducted at Source), and whether there are any deductions or exemptions available? Additionally, I'd like to understand the types of transactions that are subject to taxation and the process for reporting cryptocurrency income in India.
