- Trading fees on buy and sell
Step-by-step calculation
Worked with the default values.

Invested
₹20,00,000 × 0.5
= ₹10,00,000
- 2
Exit value
₹25,00,000 × 0.5
= ₹12,50,000
- 3
Net profit
Exit value − Invested − Fees
= ₹2,27,500
- 4
ROI
Profit ÷ Invested × 100
= 22.75%
How it works
- Invested is your buy price times the quantity of coins.
- Exit value is the sell price times the same quantity.
- Subtract the invested amount and fees from exit value to get net profit.
Examples
0.5 coins bought at ₹20L, sold at ₹25L, 1% fees
Exit value ₹12.5L against ₹10L invested — about ₹2.28L profit after fees.
Understanding the Crypto Profit Calculator
Knowing what a trade really made
Crypto prices move fast, and it is easy to eyeball a trade and assume you did well because the coin went up. But the headline price gain is rarely your real profit. Trading fees on both the buy and the sell, and — in India — a punishing tax regime, can turn a seemingly handsome gain into something far more modest. This calculator strips the trade down to what actually matters: how much you put in, how much you got back, and what was left after fees.
How the numbers come together
The core arithmetic is simple but easy to get wrong in your head:
- Invested = Buy price × Quantity
- Exit value = Sell price × Quantity
- Fees are applied across both the buy and sell legs
- Net profit = Exit value − Invested − Fees
In the worked example, 0.5 coins bought at ₹20 lakh and sold at ₹25 lakh produces an exit value of ₹12.5 lakh against ₹10 lakh invested — roughly ₹2.28 lakh in profit once a 1% fee on each leg is taken out. The ROI figure then puts that profit in context against the capital you risked.
The tax reality in India
This is where many crypto traders get an unpleasant surprise. Under Indian law, gains on virtual digital assets are taxed at a flat 30%, plus applicable surcharge and cess — with no deductions allowed beyond the cost of acquisition. On top of that, a 1% TDS applies on transfers above the threshold. Most painfully, losses cannot be set off against other crypto gains or any other income, nor carried forward.
The practical effect: the ₹2.28 lakh profit above would attract around ₹68,000 in tax before cess, leaving well under ₹1.6 lakh in hand. Always apply this to the figure the calculator shows to understand your genuine after-tax return.
Trading with your eyes open
Beyond fees and tax, two things deserve attention. First, spread and slippage — on less liquid coins, the price you actually fill at can differ meaningfully from the quoted price, so use your real executed prices for an honest result. Second, if you accumulated a coin over several purchases, feed in your weighted average buy price rather than any single entry.
Above all, remember the context these numbers live in. Crypto is among the most volatile asset classes there is, and a projected profit can evaporate in hours. Size your positions so that even a total loss would not derail your finances, and treat this calculator as a tool for clarity — not as encouragement to take on risk you cannot absorb.
Pros
- Shows real net profit after fees, not just the raw price difference.
- Works for any coin and any quantity, including small fractions.
- Instantly reveals the ROI so you can judge whether the risk paid off.
- Lets you test exit scenarios before actually placing a sell order.
- Simple inputs — buy price, sell price, quantity and fees — give a clear answer.
Cons
- Does not apply India’s flat 30% crypto tax or 1% TDS to the result.
- Assumes a single buy and single sell, not staggered or averaged entries.
- Ignores spread and slippage, which can exceed fees on illiquid coins.
- Crypto’s extreme volatility means any projected profit can vanish quickly.
Tips
- 1Apply the flat 30% tax plus cess, and the 1% TDS, to get your true after-tax return.
- 2Use your actual filled prices, not quoted prices, to capture spread and slippage.
- 3For multiple purchases, enter your weighted average buy price as the cost basis.
- 4Factor in both the buy-leg and sell-leg fees, which this calculator already does.
- 5Never invest more in crypto than you can afford to lose given its volatility.
