Features and Benefits
According to analysts, crypto adoption is likely to be witnessed from regional markets in India and with the current trend, more Indians are expected to join the crypto revolution across all demographics. From April 1, 2022, income from the transfer of virtual digital assets such as cryptocurrencies and NFTs is taxable at 30 per cent. This also means that tax compliance is top of mind for both users and regulators.
With CoinTracker, users will now be able to experiment and engage with new projects in the ecosystem, without worrying about the challenges associated with tracking, reconciliation, accounting, and compliance, said the press release.

Partnership with Biggest Crypto Players
Given that a lot of crypto users in India use CAs to do their taxes, CoinTracker allows users to add their accountant (CA) to complete tax reports for crypto with ease by aggregating exchanges and reconciling complex transactions.
CoinTracker has partnered with some of the biggest players in the crypto ecosystem, including industry-defining leaders like OpenSea and Phantom to make tax compliance effortless across exchanges, wallets, and use cases.
The company is dedicated to the experience, support, and education for its users and has also released a comprehensive guide that explains the Finance Act and current status of crypto tax rules in India, it said.
