Why can’t you buy Bitcoins from India through International Exchanges
It’s almost impossible to buy bitcoins from international exchanges from your Indian banks and its debit card. A fair amount of tax is applicable to the buy and sell orders, hence you can buy bitcoin after paying USD/INR conversation rates and taxes.
If your friend sends you bitcoin internationally it is legal until you pay taxes when converting to INR although you can also sell them in the cash with a mutual deal.
That’s the main reason why price in India for bitcoin is high compared to international price
