Cryptocurrencies are not equity instruments, contracts settled in equity, or cash. Possessing cryptocurrency does not contractually entitle the holder to receive cash or other online accounting services in India. Therefore cryptocurrencies do not meet the definition of a financial asset. Ind AS 119 specifically excludes gold bullion, noting no inherent contractual right to receive cash despite being highly liquid. The same logic applies to cryptocurrencies.
