What is Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Why It's Popular in India

What is Shiba Inu?

Shiba Inu launched in August 2020, created by an anonymous person or group known as Ryoshi. It runs as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, and its ecosystem includes Shibarium, a Layer-2 network that lowers fees and speeds up transactions. 

Shiba Inu started as a meme coin and has grown into a wider ecosystem used for payments, DeFi, and community projects. As of 2026, Shiba Inu ranks among the top crypto assets by market value and is one of the best-known meme coins. Its key differentiator is a three-token model, SHIB, LEASH, and BONE, along with regular community token burns that reduce supply.

Why Buy Shiba Inu (SHIB) in India?

  • A Leading Meme Coin: Shiba Inu is one of the most recognised meme coins, backed by a large and active community.
  • A Real Ecosystem: Beyond the meme, Shiba Inu has its own Layer-2 network, a decentralised exchange, and separate tokens for governance and rewards.
  • Built on Ethereum: As an ERC-20 token, SHIB works with widely used wallets and apps across the Ethereum network.
  • Deflationary Token Burns: The community regularly burns SHIB, which gradually reduces the circulating supply over time.
  • Round-the-Clock Market: The Shiba Inu market runs 24/7, so you can buy Shiba Inu online whenever it suits you.
  • Direct INR Access: You can buy Shiba Inu with INR on CoinDCX using its supported INR deposit and trading options.
  • Very Low Unit Price: Each SHIB costs a tiny fraction of a rupee, so you can invest in Shiba Inu with as little as ₹100.

Why Buy Shiba Inu on CoinDCX?

Three key factors can help you decide where to buy Shiba Inu in India:

Reliability and Security

FIU-IND registration, ISO/IEC certification, and offline cold storage help keep customer assets secure.

24/7 Accessibility

Trade SHIB anytime, with UPI and IMPS deposits typically credited within minutes.

Simple Trading Experience

CoinDCX provides tools and guides that help first-time investors get started with Shiba Inu.

Key Considerations Before Buying Shiba Inu (SHIB)

Meme Origin and High Volatility

Shiba Inu began as a meme coin, and its price can swing sharply on community sentiment and news. It currently trades well below its all-time high, so be ready for big moves.

Very Large Supply

Hundreds of trillions of SHIB are in circulation, which keeps the unit price tiny. Token burns reduce supply gradually, but burns alone do not guarantee that the price will rise.

Prioritise Security

Turn on app-based two-factor authentication, and confirm the exact token and ticker before you place your order.

How to Buy Shiba Inu in India with CoinDCX

Follow these 4 simple steps to start investing in Shiba Inu (SHIB) in India:

1

Sign Up

Create your account and complete KYC.

2

Add Funds

Transfer INR via UPI, IMPS, NEFT or RTGS.

3

Select Shiba Inu (SHIB):

Open the SHIB market and check the live price.

4

Enter the INR amount and confirm your order.

Tips for Buying Shiba Inu Safely

  • Verify the Token First: Many copycat "Shiba" tokens exist, so use only the official SHIB listing and check the ticker before you buy Shiba Inu.
  • Use Strong Security: Turn on app-based 2FA and set a unique password for your crypto account.
  • Choose a Compliant Platform: Buy SHIB in India through CoinDCX, an FIU-IND-registered reporting entity that follows applicable KYC and AML requirements.
  • Stay Scam-Aware: Use only official links and apps, and keep your passwords, OTPs, and seed phrases private.

How to Add Funds to Your CoinDCX Account

Before buying SHIB, add INR to your CoinDCX account via UPI, IMPS, NEFT, or RTGS.

To add INR and buy SHIB:

  1. Tap on Add Funds in your app.
  2. Enter the amount you wish to transfer.
  3. Choose Net Banking, IMPS or UPI, as your payment method.
  4. Copy the provided bank account details displayed on the screen.
  5. Add this as a beneficiary in your banking app to make the transfer.
  6. After payment, copy the Transaction ID from your banking or UPI app.
  7. Return to the CoinDCX app, paste the Transaction ID, and hit Submit.

FAQs

Yes. Shiba Inu is treated as a Virtual Digital Asset under the Income-tax Act, so buying, holding, and selling are allowed, though it is not legal tender. India regulates crypto as a taxable, speculative asset, and platforms serving Indian users must be registered with FIU-IND under anti-money-laundering rules.

To buy Shiba Inu for the first time, sign up on CoinDCX, complete KYC with your PAN and Aadhaar, deposit INR through UPI or IMPS, then open the SHIB market and confirm your order. Most first-time buyers complete all four steps on the same day.

Add INR to your CoinDCX account by choosing UPI as the payment method, entering the amount, and approving the request in your UPI app. Once the balance reflects, open the SHIB market, enter your INR amount, and confirm. UPI deposits are usually credited within minutes.

You do not need to buy a large amount of Shiba Inu. SHIB trades at a very low unit price and is divisible, so a small INR order buys thousands of tokens. The exact per-order minimum is shown on the CoinDCX order screen before you confirm.

Yes. Because SHIB has a very low unit price, ₹100 buys a large number of tokens. Open the app, search for Shiba Inu, tap Buy, enter the rupee amount, and confirm. The order fills at the live rate shown on screen.

SHIB trades directly against the rupee on FIU-IND registered Indian exchanges, so no stablecoin conversion is needed. Judge any venue on three points: FIU-IND registration under the PMLA, a direct INR pair, and published custody practices such as cold storage and Proof of Reserves.

Buying and holding Shiba Inu is not taxed. Selling or swapping your tokens triggers a flat 30% tax plus 4% cess on profits, resulting in an effective tax rate of 31.2% under the Income-tax Act, 2025. Additionally, a 1% TDS is deducted from the total trade value upon transfer under Section 393(1) of the Act. Crypto losses cannot be set off against other income. Report gains in Schedule VDA and confirm your position with a chartered accountant.

Shiba Inu is a leading meme coin with a huge community and a growing ecosystem. Against that, it began as a meme, it is highly volatile, its supply is very large, and it trades well below its all-time high. Meme coins are among the most speculative crypto assets, so weigh this carefully and treat any decision as your own.

Shibarium is a Layer-2 network built on Ethereum that aims to lower fees and speed up transactions for Shiba Inu. The wider ecosystem uses three tokens: SHIB as the main token, LEASH for scarcity, and BONE for governance and network validation. Together they support a decentralised exchange and other community projects.

Burns permanently remove SHIB from circulation, which slowly reduces supply. On their own, however, burns do not guarantee a higher price, because price also depends on demand. With hundreds of trillions of tokens in circulation, burns tend to have a gradual rather than dramatic effect.

CoinDCX is considered one of the leading platforms in India, with FIU-IND registration under the PMLA, ISO/IEC certification, direct INR funding via UPI, IMPS, NEFT and RTGS, and published Proof of Reserves.

Enable app-based two-factor authentication rather than SMS, and use a password you have not reused elsewhere. Never share an OTP, seed phrase, or remote access to your screen. No genuine support agent will ask for them. If you withdraw to a personal wallet, check the address carefully and send a small test amount first, because on-chain transfers cannot be reversed.
