Please help me in this matter.

Divyesh Jain

04 October 2021 Long term capital gains arising from sale of foreign stocks attract tax at the rate of 20% plus surcharge and health and education cess along with benefit of indexation.
Claim tax relief if any tax paid outside India.

04 October 2021 What about Short term capital gain, if any

04 October 2021 Short term capital gains 15% tax payable.

04 October 2021 Also if the Accounting year in US is January to December, will the capital gain calculation be considered as per Indian law i.e. April to March.

04 October 2021 Yes, consider it as per Indian law.
