How do I calculate Capital Gains on shares and mutual funds?


This query is : Resolved 

24 August 2020 I need to calculate Capital Gain on Shares for filling ITR.
Is the below formula to compute is correct?
Capital Gain = [Sale Price - Cost of expenditure (i.e brokerage + Transaction Charges + Stamp duty)] - [Purchase Price + Cost of Acquisition (i.e brokerage + Transaction/Turnover Charges + Stamp duty)].

Is GST paid while purchasing shares added to the Cost of Acquisition and Cost of expenditure OR it is completely excluded from calculations like STT?
Thanks.
