I think it's not suddenly as; "On June 20, CNBC India announced that the Indian government committee has ruled in favor of regulating Bitcoin and is currently establishing a task force to create various regulatory frameworks with the aim of fully legalizing Bitcoin in the short-term."
They have announced about regulate bitcoin but still not legalized it yet, I mean we know about this news and it won't be suddenly anymore as it takes months or even years (maybe) to convince govs regulate cryptocurrency.
However, we hope bitcoin could be legalized soon in India and more countries follow it.

Need confirmation on this. I am residing in India, and none of the mainstream media channels have covered this news. And I can't trust Coin Telegraph, because they are famous for spreading rumors and fake news.

This is a great news. But I did not find the date when will the legalization be formal. It seems more and more country are having strong trust to Bitcoin. First we have Japan, second is Australia, third is India, how about the fourth? The world maybe?
I feel OP's excitement and I should probably buckle up and wait for the blast-off. 
I really love hearing about more and more countries are exploring bitcoin as an option. This could totally be a good sign and more countries are going to follow suit. This will likely strengthen bitcoin's stand as the king of cryptocurrency and the future of finance. I dream of a day where I can just take my bitcoin wallet and shop anywhere I want.
Good to see Indians are becoming like Chinese, well they learned from the little people, one day shall they kill bitcoin and defame it just to resurrect and give it glory the next day, while some where in between millions of dollars are being cashed out, if you all were waiting for your government's blessing then entering crypto then you deserve to stay under their influence, we are here to put an stop into the asking for permissions from them.
If we were supposed to be happy if they did something then we shouldn't be here at all and let others take our places.

The word legalize is very misleading. It was already legal, now its just being officialy recognized and regulated.
This seems to be a positive growth towards bitcoin from the India government. I don't think the same is gonna come into effect in a short. India is a country where the government is quite focused towards digital growth, but the same government doesn't have awareness. In this perspective I believe this takes time, else if legalized surely Asia will rule the crypts.
Asian countries currently play an important role in the development of bitcoin in the world. If India properly adopted bitcoin then bitcoin price will increase again. We are ready to reach much better levels of cryptocurrency

However, chances of legalising currencies like bitcoins are very bleak, the official said. On the other hand, banning bitcoins is not easy. Simply because one doesn't know who is trading or operating it, he explained.

"We may monitor these currencies for some time and then see how it progresses. It can then be concluded if at all there is a need for a regulator,” the official said.
I can't believe how fast I jumped into this. Thank you for sharing this. It was an honest, and embarrassing mistake on my part to be praising the convoluted news in some threads.
So I've read the article, and it seems there isn't a legalization at all - but a monitoring, followed by a regulation if they see what they needed to see. It's not at all considered to be a phase of legal adoption.
But maybe to stretch it's the first few steps towards the legalization? Who knows. Only time will tell as usual.
There is some misinterpretation of government's objectives here. Bitcoin is not going to be "legalised".
What Indian government is looking for is to "regulate" the usage in favour of consumer protection and to prevent money laundering, but that is also tentative and the final report is going to be released in late July. The gov however says that it is difficult to "ban" Bitcoin and other virtual currencies.
If you want to get the correct picture, forget the OP and read this original story:

This means that the price of bitcoin will reach another all time high. I knew it after they tried their very own created alt coin, they still chose to use bitcoin for digital transactions. And there's more to come, I'm tuning in with the declaration of Australia's legalization of bitcoin. Price flying to the moon, soon.
Woah! What an another great news. It seems that Asian countries are starting to legalize bitcoin. After Japan, Philippines and now India. We know that India has a very big population so if a big percentage of their population started to use bitcoin. Then that will be good for the demand of bitcoin. Who's next?
Well Unocoin and the others did pave the Way and the whole currency debacle gained a lot of customers.
So taking a look at it the way forward was paved by yesterdays actions that said its fantastic to hear.
Great news. Bitcoin seems to be legalized a lot of developed countries and big countries in general now, with the exception of the US. It would be interesting to see when bitcoin takes off what the reaction of the US government would be. Will they take the blame for not entering the bitcoin market sooner? Or will they continue to talk trash about bitcoin when they know that bitcoin is superior? Either way, if the US does not show a lot of support for bitcoin, they'll be left behind.
Although I like the idea of legalization of bitcoin, nothing is really legalized here. It's merely an official statement saying that we're going to regulate the market, but bitcoin trading was still legal in india. What would be really awesome would be countries that are banning bitcoin usage currently like China to stop the restrictions.
It is quite weird, because earlier in the year Indian exchanges had one of the highest bitcoin prices compared to worldwide bitcoin exchanges, indicating that capital is leaving the country fast and government obviously does not want you to use bitcoin.
But now, they are trying to legalize it.
I think that Australia and Japan's decisions have affected the Indian government's thinking a lot, they do not want to get left behind in this world where technology is king, and if you are behind on the latest updates, then your country will suffer. This is an extremely good move, and i believe that a country that will probably exceed China's population by mid-century legalizing bitcoin is great news. Although the article says that it's going to be regulated by the government instead of being a self-regulated market, and that could be a cause of concern. We don't want intervention from governments.
meh, it is dissapointing because a known shit news site has posted this so i wouldn't bother reading it.
and i don't get the title either, it is not really "suddenly", it proves cointelegraph is once again posting random stuff without researching. Indian have been debating what to do about bitcoin for a long time now. they have multiple good exchanges and a very large trading volume with the price even higher than USD markets (about 10% higher).
there have even been a couple of petitions in the past couple of months to make bitcoin officially legal. so yeah, apparently months and months of work to CTL means suddenly
