How this list is made

We rank by market capitalisation (price times coins in circulation), updated from live market data. A coin is included only if it can be bought in India: it must trade on an FIU-IND registered exchange, or be one of the two main dollar stablecoins (USDT and USDC). Tokenised loans, funds and exchange coins you cannot buy on an Indian app are left out, so this list can differ slightly from global rankings.

Best for the long term?

Size tells you how established and liquid a coin is, not whether it will rise. Bitcoin and Ethereum have the longest records and are the easiest to buy and sell in rupees, so many Indian investors hold them as the core of a crypto allocation and buy through a monthly crypto SIP. Smaller coins can move much further in both directions. Keep crypto to a share of your savings you could afford to lose, and read top 5 cryptocurrencies for the long term, long-term crypto investing in India and how to choose the best crypto for you.

Where to buy them in India

All of these trade in rupees on FIU-IND registered exchanges, which take UPI or bank deposits and deduct the 1% TDS for you. Compare them in the top 5 crypto exchanges in India, check the tax with the crypto tax calculator, and follow how to buy crypto in India.
