The government has circulated a Cabinet note issued in the winter session of the Parliament regarding the upcoming cryptocurrency bill passed on positive news for cryptocurrency investors and industry, instead of banning private cryptocurrencies. The note has regarded cryptocurrency as a crypto asset that will fall under the regulatory preview of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).

Besides, a cut-off date will be mentioned for those investors possessing crypto assets to declare the same and bring it under the crypto exchange platform. However, no provision is granted by the government to recognise it as a legal currency.

The country’s own virtual currency by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has not been included with the new crypto bill. Furthermore, the central bank will regulate issues based on cryptocurrencies.
