2) if not then at what rate long term capital gain is to be taxed..?

09 July 2012 Long term capital loss on which STT has been paid is not allowed as loss becuase LTCG in such case is exempt.

However, LTCG on which STT has been paid is NOT exempt. Accordngly, such long term capital loss shall be allowed.

Further, such LTCL can be set off against any LTCG.
