Rs 437 crore tax collection: For crypto traders, evading income tax is getting difficult as Tax Dept uses AI, data analytics tools
ET Online Crypto tax In India, avoiding taxes on bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and other virtual digital assets is becoming increasingly difficult. The Income Tax Department is increasing its efforts to monitor transactions related to the virtual digital assets (VDAs) made by individuals. This is being done through the use of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and other data analytics tools. According to the government's reply in the Parliament, the government has collected Rs 437 crore in taxes for FY 2022-23 from VDA-related income. The government implemented income tax rules for crypto and other VDAs from FY 2022- 23. In FY 2022-23, the government collected Rs 269.09 crore in taxes from VDA income.

The Central Board of Direct Taxes has initiated the NUDGE (Non-Intrusive Use of Data to Guide and Enable) campaign to identify such discrepancies for further action. Under NUDGE campaign suitable communications, to review and update their income tax returns, were issued to all taxpayers who did not report VDA-related transactions in their income tax returns, despite tax being deducted at source for such transactions by VASPs, where the quantum of such discrepancy was more than Rs 1 lakh.
