Does ZebPay report to the Income Tax Department in India?

In short, yes. ZebPay is a compliant crypto exchange operating in India, meaning it follows all the government guidance to legally operate there. As part of this, ZebPay deducts and deposits TDS to the ITD on behalf of users. The main reason TDS was introduced was to help the ITD track crypto investments for taxpayers in India. As well as this, the ITD may request that ZebPay share customer data to ensure tax compliance. You should always report your crypto investments accurately, as the penalties for tax evasion in India are steep.

How are ZebPay transactions taxed?

The tax you'll pay on your ZebPay transactions in India all depends on the transactions you've made:

  • 1% TDS: Purchasing crypto with INR or trading one crypto for another is subject to 1% TDS. ZebPay will deduct this on your behalf.
  • 30% tax: Any gain from trading, selling, or spending crypto on ZebPay is subject to a 30% flat tax. Losses from trading, selling, or spending crypto cannot be offset against gains.
  • Income Tax at your individual slab rate: Earning crypto - for example, new tokens from lending rewards - may be subject to Income Tax at your individual slab rate.

How to get a ZebPay tax statement

For Indian investors, you'll report your ZebPay gains or income in your Income Tax Return. Any gains should be reported in Schedule VDA and any income from crypto should be reported in Schedule Income From Other Sources. You can do all of this online using the Income Tax Portal, but first, you'll need to calculate your gains and income from ZebPay investments.

To do this, you'll need to get details about each time you sold, swapped, or spent crypto including your cost base, transaction dates, transaction proceeds, and more, and then report each transaction in your Schedule VDA. As well as this, if you have income from crypto, you'll need to calculate the fair market value of that income in INR on the day you received it.

This is why most investors use a crypto tax calculator like Koinly. Koinly calculates all this for you and generates crypto tax reports that include all the information you need to easily file with the ITD. All you need to do is import your ZebPay transaction data to Koinly by uploading a CSV file of your transaction history.
