Cryptocurrency is legal in Hungary and subject to a 15% personal income tax on gains. Hungary follows EU regulatory frameworks including MiCA. The MNB supervises crypto service providers, and the country has a growing blockchain and crypto ecosystem.

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.
