India vs Madagascar

Crypto regulation comparison

India

India

Madagascar

Madagascar

Legal
No Regulation

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.

Madagascar has no specific cryptocurrency regulation. The central bank has not issued formal guidance on crypto. Crypto operates in a legal gray area.
