1. Transfer of listed equity shares

On transfer of

Listed Equity Shares

Equity Oriented Mutual Funds

Units Of Business Trust

if short term gain arises such income will be taxed at the concessional rate of 15%

If you are holding assets other than above list

It will be taxed at normal slab rates

Advisory Comments :

It will be beneficial if you are investing in listed securities .

Lets understand with small example

Your short term capital gain is ₹1500000

If you are investing in other than listed securities tax on such income will be –

If your age is below 60 years

(15,00,000-10,00,000)×30% =₹1,50,000

On balance ₹10,00,000 = ₹ 1,12,500

Total Tax Payable = ₹ 2,62,500

If your age is above 60 years and below 80 years

Total tax Payable on Income = ₹2,60,000

If your age is above 80 years

Total Tax payable on income = ₹2,50,000

( Above all taxes are calculated excluding health and education cess)

On Other hand instead of above investment if you are investing in any of listed security tax on transfer of such asset –

15,00,000 × 15% = ₹ 2,25,000

From above example its proved 15% tax option is more beneficial

Hope so you all are understood my today’s article..

Thank You !!
