Crypto investors in India face the increased audit of the income tax section, which has increased the use of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and data analysis tools to detect tax evasion associated with virtual digital assets (VDAS). According to a government statement in Parliament, 437 rupees were collected as a tax from VDA income in the fiscal year 2022-23.

The tax rules were presented in the coded currencies in the 23rd year under Article 115BBH of the Income Tax Law, 1961. In that first year, 269.09 rupees of VDA’s transactions were collected. The Tax Department did not issue estimates of possible revenue due to the abuse of reporting, but it follows contradictions actively through advanced systems and targeted initiatives.
One of the main initiative is the payment campaign (non-interference of data to guide and empower), according to which individuals who failed to report the encryption income-TDS were released despite its discount by virtual asset service providers (VASPS)-was issued to alerts to adjust their returns. These connections are sent when the contradictions exceed 1 rpustic.
Although the actual time matching for encryption transactions data between the income tax declarations and the VASPS TDS files are not yet operating, the back interface systems are linked to information using tools such as NMS and “Project Insight”.
To enhance the app, the government has also launched capacity -building programs. Tax employees are regularly training Blockchain analysis, digital forensic medicine, legal frameworks, and dealing with digital evidence. This includes short -term stereotypes presented in cooperation with the National Criminal Sciences University (NFSU), Gaa.
The penalties increase significantly for those who abuse the encryption income or reports. Under Article 270 A of the Information Technology Law, a penalty of 50 percent of the unpaid tax is imposed on reports, and 200 percent in wrong reporting cases.
Since India intensifies its regulatory grip on digital assets, encryption dealers are well advised to detect all income transparently to avoid harsh sanctions and enforcement procedures.
