Cryptocurrency is legal in Greece and regulated under the EU framework. A 2024 tax reform established a 15% tax on crypto capital gains, replacing the prior uncertain treatment. The Hellenic Capital Market Commission oversees crypto service provider registration.

India legalized crypto taxation in the 2022 Union Budget, imposing a flat 30% tax on all crypto gains with no deductions for losses. A 1% TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on crypto transactions above thresholds also applies. The Supreme Court struck down the RBI's 2018 banking ban in 2020, and India is now developing a broader regulatory framework.
