WazirX to resume Trading on October 24 with Zero Trading Fees for 30 Days

Indian crypto exchange WazirX has announced plans to resume trading operations on October 24, 2025, marking a major step in its recovery after months of inactivity. The exchange confirmed that trading will return gradually in phased rollouts, accompanied by a zero-trading-fee campaign across all markets for the first 30 days to drive user engagement and rebuild liquidity.

The announcement follows a key legal breakthrough — the Singapore High Court’s approval of WazirX’s long-awaited restructuring plan. The ruling paves the way for the platform to begin repaying users affected by the $234 million hack that hit the exchange in July 2024.

Phased rollout to ensure stable market recovery

The exchange stated trading will restart in four phases between October 24 and October 27, reaching full functionality before the October 30 deadline. Each day, around 25% of all listed tokens will be re-enabled for trading.

During the phased rollout, all tokens will first be activated in the USDT market, while the INR market will initially support only the USDT/INR pair, with additional pairs added later.

Trading orders can be placed from 10:00 AM IST, and order matching will begin at 5:00 PM IST each day. Tokens yet to go live will temporarily display prices sourced from CoinMarketCap, ensuring transparent tracking for users.

They also noted that several projects underwent changes while trading was paused leading to delistings, swaps, or mergers in line with WazirX’s listing standards. Updated lists of delisted and modified tokens have been published on the exchange’s website.

Zero-Fee trading and user guidance for relaunch

WazirX emphasized that its zero-trading-fee period will apply across all supported tokens and markets for 30 days. Depending on community feedback, the offer could be extended further.

Users are advised to trade cautiously during the reopening, as early volatility and temporary liquidity gaps are expected. The exchange encouraged traders to verify token prices before executing orders and to avoid large market trades until stability returns.
