No it's neither illegal nor legal. But the insiders news is it soon will acquire legal tender

Before, Wikipedia was saying it was illegal. Now it says this:

Legal
On 28 December 2013, the Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, K. C. Chakrabarty, made a statement that the Reserve Bank of India had no plans to regulate bitcoin.

This is a complete flip-flop that took me completely by surprise.

Recently some ministers tried to put a ban. Wrote article on it, the literature merit might not be good but you'll get a basic idea of the current scenario.
