Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court struck down the Reserve Bank of India's circular prohibiting banks from providing services to entities dealing with virtual currencies. The court held that the RBI's action was unconstitutional as it imposed a blanket ban without sufficient justification, violating the rights of individuals and businesses engaged in legitimate activities. The judgment emphasized the need for regulatory measures that do not infringe on fundamental rights.
