Buying etherum is still not available in India directly by exchanges against INR. But still you can buy BTC in India and then you can easily and instantly exchange your Bitcoins for etherum or any of top cryptocurrencies instantly without even touching to exchange.
How to store ethereum and how to buy it in India so here’s the steps I follow.
- Create ZebPay/Unocoin account and get yourself verified.
- Download Exodus wallet from here exodus.io
- Buy Bitcoin from ZebPay or Unocoin
- Now go to Shapeshift.io or poloniex (I prefer Shapeshift as its simple to use) and choose Bitcoin to eth. Enter destination address of eth wallet you received after installing Exodus. Pay via Bitcoin. Alternately you can transfer your Bitcoin to Exodus wallet and change to eth directly from Exodus wallet, but it will cost you a little extra.
- Enjoy your etherum coins

Congratulations for taking a good decision. Investing in bitcoins is a good investment idea in recent days. Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically. No one controls it. Bitcoins aren’t printed, like dollars or euros – they’re produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems.
