Buy Crypto in India with INR

On CoinYatra you buy crypto with rupees through the peer-to-peer marketplace: you pay a verified seller by UPI or bank transfer while their crypto is held in escrow, and it is released to your account once they confirm your payment.

Once you hold a balance you can also swap between assets or trade on the spot market. Live prices are shown below, and the exact price and fee appear before you confirm.

Digital assets are volatile and not covered by deposit insurance. Capital at risk.

Buying crypto with UPI or bank transfer

Open the P2P marketplace, choose a sell ad whose price, limits and payment methods suit you, and start an order. The seller's crypto is locked in escrow immediately. Send the INR by UPI or bank transfer within the payment window, mark the payment as sent, and escrow releases the crypto once the seller confirms receipt. Only pay to the payment details shown inside the order.

  • Pay in INR by UPI or bank transfer, as accepted by the ad
  • Seller's crypto held in escrow from the moment the order opens
  • Each ad shows price, limits, payment window and trader record
  • Disputes reviewed by the CoinYatra team with escrow intact

Which crypto can I buy?

16 assets are supported, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT on BSC and ERC-20, Solana, XRP, TRON and Dogecoin. Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT (BSC and ERC-20) and Solana can be bought directly for INR on P2P; other assets can be reached by swapping or trading on the spot market after you buy. Each asset's network, minimum deposit and confirmation count are listed on the markets page.

After you buy

Crypto you buy is held in your custodial CoinYatra account, protected by two-factor authentication and a double-entry internal ledger. You can hold it, swap it, trade it, sell it back for INR, or withdraw it on-chain — withdrawals are reviewed before release, and network fees and minimums are published on the fees page.
