WazirX has launched crypto Futures trading as part of its broader restructuring efforts, with the company stating that revenues from the new offering will contribute toward additional recoveries for eligible creditors holding Recovery Tokens.
The crypto exchange announced that WazirX Futures will feature a maker fee of 0.02% and a taker fee of 0.04%, positioning it among the lowest-cost Futures offerings in the Indian crypto market.
The platform will also support direct INR access for Futures trading, allowing users to avoid converting funds into USDT before opening trades.
According to the company, profits generated from Futures operations will support its ongoing restructuring process and additional recoveries beyond the 85% fund distribution already completed.
“Futures trading in India has meant high fees unless you are a large-volume institutional trader. We have changed that baseline,” said Nischal Shetty, founder, WazirX.
The company added that access to Futures trading will require users to complete a mandatory knowledge assessment focused on leverage, liquidation, and margin risks.
WazirX said the rollout of Futures trading will happen gradually based on liquidity conditions, risk controls, and user preparedness.
