HODLing is an art, not just a word...
your question is wrong.
your bitcoin was not stolen and your address/wallet was not hacked, instead your account was hacked and you lost IOUs that this particular exchange had given you instead of your bitcoins.

and in case that your exchange account is hacked it depends on whose fault was it. if it was your fault (like having weak password, having malware,...) then there is nothing anybody can or will do for you. but if it was the exchange fault (like having weak security, leaking your information, having their site/database hacked,...) then the exchange should compensate your losses. whether they will do it or not depends on the exchange and their honesty...

You don't own Bitcoin on exchange addresses. Its the account you own. So to clarify: did funds disappear from your exchange account?

If you lose funds from your Bitcoin address, nobody can help you. Be your own bank works both ways.

Thanks for your valuable comment. Yes, the funds has been disappear from the exchange or you can say it has been transferred to another BTC address and the whole transaction was not done from my side and i think this all state that my account has been hacked in that particular exchange right.  Is there any website where can i complain or who can help in getting back my BTC.

Hi, there is nothing anyone can do about this....what it means is that, you have lost your funds forever.
Blockchain decentralized  and anonymous structure makes it hard if not impossible for you to trace the wallets in which your lost funds was transfered to and the offline address of the culprit.
So sorry for your loss.

Hi Friends, actually one of my BTC address from Zebpay account having almost 0.01550 BTC has been hacked and the amount has been stolen just few days ago. The amount was not quite big for me, but i really fear about the security of holding the BTC in exchanges and now even in wallets.

I Just want to know is there any ways i can get back my BTC back to my account and also is there any website or authority who can help me out in getting back my stolen BTC, let me know about it. Also let me know what safety measurement should i take while holding my BTC in Exchanges. Thanks in advance.
