India Considers Regulatory Framework for Virtual Digital Assets Amid Global Trends
India's virtual digital asset (VDA) sector currently lacks a comprehensive regulatory framework, despite being subject to tax laws and anti-money laundering obligations. Global jurisdictions like the EU, US, and parts of Asia have implemented detailed regulations ensuring legal certainty, proportionality, and consumer protection. A parliamentary committee recommends establishing an interim regulatory mechanism through self-regulatory organisations under government oversight to address governance, transparency, investor protection, and market discipline until comprehensive legislation is enacted.
