Reserve Bank Of India(RBI) has issued a circular dated 6th April says that all the banks and payment companies in india should withdraw all the transactions with cryptocurrency exchanges and all the dealings should come to an end in the 3 months. Thus, banks have deadline date of 5th July. So, after 5th July, you may experience troubles while depositing or withdrawing your money in bank account from cryptocurrency exchanges.

A Cryptocurrency fanatic has filed a petition against this RBI Circular, but Supreme Court of India is not ready yet to issue a stay against this circular. However, Indian Supreme Court has decided the next hearing will be on July 20.

India's leading Cryptocurrency exchange, Zebpay has released a notification regarding this. It said, "As per a recent RBI action, banks have been told to discontinue banking services to those dealing with virtual currencies. While our industry is challenging this legally, the outcome is beyond our control. Hence, if you are holding any rupees, or depositing any rupees in Zebpay, there could soon come a time when we may not be able to honour withdrawal requests. Please continue only if you understand this risk."
