Title: India begins to raid bitcoin firms!! Post by: cuddaloreappu on December 28, 2013, 03:18:43 AM A couple of days after the Reserve Bank of India issued an advisory to public not to indulge in buying-selling of Bitcoins, the first raid in India was undertaken in Ahmedabad by Enforcement Directorate (ED) on an entity that provide platform to trade in this illegal but virtual currency.
On Thursday, ED raided the premises of Mahim Gupta in Bopal area of the city who provides trading platform through his website -‑ buysellbit.co.in. During the preliminary investigation, the ED found that it is in clear violation of Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) act. So Bitcoin transaction with anyone outside of the country = violation of FEMA act = illegal in india . http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-first-time-in-the-country-ed-raids-a-bitcoin-seller-in-ahmedabad-1941187 Title: Re: India begins to raid bitcoin firms!!
