KuCoin has announced the implementation of a 1% Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) for its users in India. This development follows the successful registration of the exchange’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) in the country. From April 10, 2024, the platform will charge TDS on the transfer of Virtual Digital Assets (VDA) as per the guidelines of the Indian Government.

Per the guidelines of the Indian Income Tax Department, KuCoin will cut TDS for its users and will pay the deducted tax directly to the authorities.&nbsp;

This deduction is applicable to many trading activities, including selling in the INR/Crypto market, buy-sell activities in the Crypto/Crypto market, and selling in the P2P market. The exchange has made it clear that INR/Crypto market purchases will not be deducted from this. 
<h2 id="tax-deduction-criteria-and-tracking">Tax Deduction Criteria and Tracking</h2> 
The deductions rate for most transactions is 1%. Nevertheless, an additional rate of 5% may be applicable on some scenarios as per the provision of section 206AB of the Income Tax Act, 1961. This provision will apply if the user has not filed an Income Tax Return for at least two years and the TDS amount in each of those two years is in excess of ₹50,000. 
They can then review the TDS deducted from the history of completed orders or request the full trade report from the exchange. This facilitates traders in maintaining correct financial records and transparency of the deduction process. 
Concurrently, in relation to user privacy worries, <a href="https://coingape.com/kucoin-responds-to-rumors-of-sharing-user-data-with-indian-gov/">KuCoin </a>guarantees its customers that the security of their assets and privacy is what matters most. The exchange, moreover, claimed that it operates as an off-shore global platform within the framework of the existing international compliance laws. 
<h2 id="market-response-and-exchange-resilience">Market Response and Exchange Resilience</h2> 
The introduction of the TDS has received mixed responses from the user community in India. <a href="https://coingape.com/kucoin-teases-another-major-airdrop-as-users-queue-to-claim-10m-rewards/">KuCoin’s </a>treatment, however, of local tax regulations is proof of its respect to the legal infrastructure of the markets in which it operates. The exchange has highlighted that TDS is one of the steps towards creating a transparent and regulated market for cryptocurrency transactions in India. 
On the global front, KuCoin continues to navigate the challenges posed by regulatory scrutiny. Despite being accused of invasion of privacy for its FIU registration, the exchange claims that it has not handed over user information to the Government of India. 
<h2 id="kucoin-s-positioning-and-regulatory-hurdles">KuCoin’s Positioning and Regulatory Hurdles</h2> 
While KuCoin consolidates its position in India, it is concurrently addressing legal challenges in other jurisdictions, including the United States. The reserves of <a href="https://coingape.com/kucoin-bitcoin-reserve-plunges-over-25-after-doj-charges/">Bitcoin </a>and Ethereum at the exchange have gone down in recent times, and it is speculated that the reason for this is the mounting regulatory threats and legal heat the exchange is under. 
The crypto exchange is facing allegations from the Department of Justice and a lawsuit from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) regarding its trading practices. Nevertheless, KuCoin continues to operate and adapt its services according to the changing global regulatory environment.
