I bought 200 shares of ABC Company at a rate of Rs 80 per share in 20-May-2018 (invested amount being Rs 16000/-). In Apr-2020 this company was merged with another company and new merged company XYZ Ltd. converted the 200 share to 50 shares on 21Apr2020. I sold the 50 shares on 15Feb21 at the rate of Rs 350 per share for sale value of Rs 17500/-. Q1. Will this be case of STCG or LTCG ? Q2. How will the Cost of Acqusition be calculated for STCG or LTCG calculation? Will the cost of acquisition be Rs 16000 for 50 shares of XYZ Ltd?
