Trading volume of Indian crypto exchanges have dropped significantly after new tax laws on crypto traders were imposed. Starting July 1, 1% TDS was imposed for all crypto traders on all Indian crypto exchanges. If you are trading 100 INR, 1 INR would be deducted as TDS. And for daily traders, 1% TDS does not make any sense, as it depletes their trading volume. For anyone who is trading 5 times a day, close to 5 percent is lost, and the trader is left with only 95 percent of what he had before starting trading, considering he made no profit no loss. ## Launch of Web3 Discovery Fund by CoinSwitch ## ## 5
