Bybit, a global cryptocurrency exchange, is set to impose an 18% Goods and Services Tax (GST) on Indian crypto users starting from July 7, 2025.
The GST will be applied to trades, staking, withdrawals, and other transactions, and the tax will be deducted directly from the assets received.
Alongside the GST implementation, Bybit will discontinue legacy products like crypto loans, fiat cards, and trading bots effective from July 9, 2025, as part of its compliance overhaul.
The new GST policy will impact over 310,000 active Indian users on Bybit, making crypto trading costlier and potentially affecting trading volume in the country.
