Key Highlights:
- WazirX will resume trading in four phases from October 24 -27.
- Users will be able to trade any token without fees for 30 days.
- Token activity and liquidity expected to rise after restart.
WazirX, India’s top cryptocurrency exchange, officially restarted its platform today October 24, 2025 and it is getting ready to get back to full trading through a managed four-day phased rollout. The exchange was inactive for almost 15 months and with this return, the platform is making sure that it remains transparent and provides security to its users. Stability will also be observed once the trading gradually resumes across all tokens and markets.
WazirX in an announcement on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter), confirmed that the trading will resume in stages between October 24 and October 27. The announcement states that the platform will be live by October 27, 2025, and which is right before the 10-day deadline of October 30.
Moreover, the announcement also confirms that every stage of the restart process will undergo extensive testing. Such intensive testing will make sure that the platform is technically ready for the restart, there are no errors with the platform and it provides a smooth user experience.
Zero Trading Fee Offer for 30 Days
WazirX is also offering zero trading fees across all markets as the platform is restarting and this move is bound to encourage user participation. This offer will remain active for 30 days and will allow users to trade any available token without incurring platform fees.
The exchange has also said that the user response during these 30 days will be evaluated and if the response is good enough, the offer may be extended.
Phased Rollout Plan
According to the announcement, the restart will take place across four phases. Every phase will unlock almost 25% of all tokens for trading daily. The schedule has been decided as below:
- Phase 1: October 24, 2025
- Phase 2: October 25, 2025
- Phase 3: October 26, 2025
- Phase 4: October 27, 2025
By October 27, all listed tokens will be available for trading across the platform, restoring full functionality ahead of schedule. In the beginning, the trading is set to open in the USDT market, with the USDT/INR pair going live first. Other INR pairs will be added slowly and gradually and there will be a separate announcement from the platform for the same.
The orders will open at 10:00 AM IST and the trading will begin at 5:00 PM IST. This time gap will allow users to review and adjust their orders before the trading goes live.
Market Transparency and Price Display
As the trading begins, all of the active tokens will show real-time Last Traded Prices (LTP). Tokens that are not active will temporarily use reference prices from CoinMarketCap.
The exchange has also highlighted that the user dashboard balances use the USDT/INR rate, whereas the Rebalanced NLPA section indicates global prices using the USD/INR rate. This might be the reason why some users noticed lower-than-expected values in certain sections of their dashboards recently.
The approach that has been adopted by the platform ensures that there is maximum level of transparency and it lets users clearly see how markets reopen each day.
Token Reviews, Delistings and Swaps
As a part of its reviewal process, WazirX has made several updates to its listed assets during the 15 month long downtime. Some tokens have been delisted as they did not meet the exchange’s technical or transparency standards and many of these tokens were swapped or merged through project-led initiatives.
It is advised that users should go through the updated list of delisted and swapped tokens. The list is available via official WazirX communication channels.
Withdrawals and User Guidance
From October 24, crypto withdrawals are being re-enabled in phases, while INR withdrawals remain fully available. However, it is advised by the platform that liquidity checks should be carried out before trading, especially with low-volume pairs, and users should definitely avoid rushing trades.
This is the last step in WazirX’s return to full trading. The platform will need some time before it becomes completely stable. Once the stability is established, users can expect an active market, clear updates and increased liquidity.
