🚀 Putin Signs Law Regulating Digital Currency Taxation In Russia

According to BlockBeats, Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law regulating the taxation of digital currencies. The new legislation classifies digital currencies as property, including those used for foreign trade payments within the framework of experimental legal regimes in the digital innovation sector. Notably, the mining and sale of digital currencies will not be subject to value-added tax (VAT).

Operators of mining infrastructure are required to report to tax authorities when their services are used to issue cryptocurrencies. Failure to submit this information on time may result in a fine of 40,000 rubles. Regarding personal income tax, digital currencies obtained through mining are categorized as in-kind income, a term typically used when payments are made with goods or services instead of money. The value of the acquired currency will be determined based on market quotations, and such income will be taxed at the usual progressive rates, with tax deductions considered for mining expenses.

Additionally, income from acquiring, selling, or otherwise circulating digital currencies will be taxed under a two-tier personal income tax rate system. Income up to 2.4 million rubles will be taxed at 13%, while income exceeding this amount will be taxed at 15%. These earnings will be included in the same tax base as income from securities, bank deposits, and other sources. For corporate income tax, digital currency mining will be taxed at the standard rate, which will be 25% starting in 2025.

🚀 India's 2025 Budget Introduces Tax Regulations for Cryptocurrency

According to Odaily, India's Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced in the 2025 federal budget that cryptocurrencies will be included under Section 158B of the Income Tax Act for reporting undisclosed income. This amendment allows for collective assessment of unreported cryptocurrency gains, aligning them with traditional assets like currency, jewelry, and bullion in terms of tax treatment. Under the new amendment, cryptocurrencies will fall under the definition of virtual digital assets (VDA). The amendment specifies that under the existing definition of virtual digital assets, crypto assets are defined in Section 2(47A) of the Act. Entities required to report will need to provide information on crypto assets as per Section 285BAA of the Act.

Signaling concerns for cryptocurrency holders, Indian authorities may impose a tax penalty of up to 70% on previously undisclosed cryptocurrency profits. The document indicates that this penalty could apply to undisclosed crypto gains for up to 48 months following the relevant tax assessment year. The document states, 'The additional income disclosed in the updated Income Tax Return [ITR] will be subject to a total tax and interest of 70%.'

🚀 India's New Tax Law to Monitor Digital Activities

According to PANews, the Indian Income Tax Department will gain the authority to monitor individuals' digital activities, including social media accounts, emails, and online financial transactions, starting April 1, 2026. This development is part of the 2025 Income Tax Act, aimed at enhancing the department's ability to detect tax evasion and undisclosed assets, including cryptocurrency holdings.

Under Section 247 of the Act, tax officials can access digital platforms if they suspect tax evasion. This includes the ability to override passwords and access computer systems and virtual digital spaces when necessary. The move is seen as an effort to modernize tax investigations by leveraging digital forensic technology to track undisclosed income, aligning with the increasing digitization of financial transactions.

Experts have raised concerns about privacy, fearing that the broad powers granted to tax officials could lead to misuse and infringe on privacy rights. The bill is currently under review by a special committee, which will consult with stakeholders before finalizing the legislation.
