India vs Peru

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.

Cryptocurrency is legal in Peru but lacks comprehensive regulation. The SBS (Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y AFP) oversees AML requirements. Peru has growing crypto adoption, particularly for remittances. Crypto gains are subject to capital gains tax at 5% for the first 5 UIT and at higher rates for larger amounts.
