what is your tax residence status Pal? as such Singapore has abolished capital gains tax. however, if you are Indian resident, then you need to hold for more than 36 months to be eligible for long term capital gains.

I am an Indian resident.
The bigger story is this:
I had incorporated a company in India in 2009.
It raised VC capital in 2012 and in Jun 2013 a new company was incorporated in Singapore in which I have been given proportional shares.
I am now selling these shares in Singapore entity in July 2014. And want to understand if there is anyway to avoid the short term tax liability.

prima facie, your tax liability on this transaction is basically cast in stone.
the DTAA is pretty clear on this. Any detailed advice is possible only after looking at the transaction structure with actual documentation.

The following article suggests that even for equity shares in unlisted company the holding period is 1 Year to qualify as Long Term Capital Gain.

Are the rules different for equity holding in India vs Foreign Companies ?

If I were to stay in Singapore for 7 months in this financial year. Can this tax be avoided ?
Does the stay outside India have to be for work or can it be for leisure also ?
