A checklist for any platform
- Is it on the FIU-IND list of registered virtual digital asset service providers?
- How long has it operated, and through what?
- Does it say where customer assets are held and show evidence?
- Does it deduct 1% TDS and report transactions properly?
- Does anyone ask for your OTP, password, PAN or seed phrase in chat, a call or a message? Real support never will.
- Does anyone promise guaranteed returns? Walk away.
Your part
- Turn on two-factor authentication.
- Withdraw to your own wallet if you want sole control of the keys. See the security guide.
- Only hold what you could bear to see fall in value. Crypto is unregulated in India and there may be no regulatory recourse for loss.
