LTCG - Loss on Equity


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies which expenses, such as brokerage, stamp duty, SEBI charges, and GST, can be deducted when calculating long-term capital gains (LTCG) and short-term capital gains (STCG) on equity. It also addresses that bonus shares are not dividends but assets acquired at zero cost.
