Questions

Is Binance or Giottus safer?

Neither is "safe" in absolute terms. Compare the facts above: FIU-IND registration, whether you can withdraw crypto to your own wallet, and past incidents. Whichever you use, keep only what you trade on the exchange and turn on two-factor authentication.

Do Binance and Giottus deduct 1% TDS?

Exchanges registered with FIU-IND and serving Indian users are expected to deduct 1% TDS on crypto sales. Check your AIS on the income tax portal to confirm what was deducted under your PAN, and claim it in your ITR.

Can I use both Binance and Giottus?

Yes. Many people use more than one exchange. For tax, report trades from every exchange in Schedule VDA and match the TDS in your AIS.
