Indian Investors Can Invest in US Spot Bitcoin ETFs

Indian investors can buy crypto ETFs through Indian exchanges or through the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) route, which will incur a 20% tax collected at source (TCS) on remittance. Mudrex plans to use the route to offer the services.

With $250,000 in a year as a limit in LRS, Mudrex plans to offer the advantage of investing in spot bitcoin ETFs with a minimum investment of $5,000 and a maximum of $250,000. Whereas, when investors use crypto exchanges in India, it involves a 1% TDS on transfer of crypto assets and a 30% tax on profits.

Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of Mudrex, in an interview with CoinDesk said “We are certainly the first Indian crypto platform to offer this service. The LRS is the tricky part for most people and over there (in the U.S.), because we also have strong banking relationships, we’re able to help users do these transactions in a very seamless way, and that’s why these services are important.”

Patel added that the service will be more valuable to institutional investors. The first four spot Bitcoin ETFs in the plan include BlackRock iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT), Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin ETF (FBTC), and Franklin Templeton Bitcoin ETF (EZBC).
