How Equity Share Tax is Calculated(Effective 23rd July, 2024)
In India, the capital gains tax on equity shares depends on the holding period and whether STT (Securities Transaction Tax) was paid:
Short Term Capital Gains (< 12 months)
- Listed shares with STT paid: Flat 20% tax rate under Section 111A
- Listed shares without STT or unlisted shares: Taxed as per your income tax slab rate
Long Term Capital Gains (≥ 12 months)
- Listed shares with STT paid: 12.5% tax on gains exceeding ₹1,00,000 in a financial year under Section 112A (without indexation)
- Listed shares without STT or unlisted shares: 20% with indexation benefit under Section 112
This calculator helps you determine whether your investment qualifies as long-term or short-term and calculates the applicable tax accordingly.
