SunCrypto Launches Crypto Futures Trading in INR: 0% Fees for the First Month
SunCrypto launches crypto futures trading with up to 75x leverage across 500+ trading pairs, offering Indian investors INR-based futures and zero trading fees for the first month to maximize profitability. Crypto derivatives dominate the global market, accounting for 60-70% of all crypto trading volume. The benefits of futures lie in their high leverage and the electrifying volatility of cryptocurrencies, enabling traders to amplify returns by controlling larger positions with minimal capital. This makes derivatives a hotspot for wealth creation, as crypto's price surges fuel unparalleled opportunities. In India, however, crypto futures trading has been out of reach. Many exchanges limit futures trading to USDT pairs, forcing traders to move towards costly P2P conversions. Breaking this barrier 'SunCrypto - India's leading FIU-IND registered exchange', with the launch of its Crypto Futures Trading in INR. This first-of-its-kind move enables direct futures trading with Indian Rupees. To make this launch even more exciting, SunCrypto is offering zero trading fees for the first month, maximizing profitability for Indian users from the outset. For years, Indian traders have embraced futures in stocks and commodities. But in crypto, their journey often ended at spot trading due to the lack of INR support in derivatives. SunCrypto changed the game by allowing direct INR crypto futures trading, making it possible to go long or short on over 500+ trading pairs without touching stablecoins. Meanwhile, the platform's Futures Trading supports both INR and USDT pairs. There's no need to manually convert INR to USDT or use P2P services — the exchange automatically converts your INR balance into USDT at the time of trading in the USDT market, with zero fees. At the heart of this innovation lies leverage up to 75x — meaning users can control large positions with minimal investment. A ₹1,000 margin can open a ₹1,00,000 position, enabling high-potential strategies on short-term price movements. But high leverage demands smart tools — and SunCrypto delivers: Stop Loss and Take Profit (SL/TP) settings for risk management Isolated Margin to limit losses to a single position Multiple order types: Market, Limit, Stop Market, Stop Limit Real-time charts and a responsive interface for quick execution With this feature set, SunCrypto caters to both beginners and seasoned traders, offering a platform that is both intuitive and powerful.
