100 shares of face value of Rs. 10/- each were subdivided to face value Rs. 2/- each on 1st July 2006, 500 shares of face value of 2/- each were credited to my demat account No. 41185123 against my holding of 100 share of face value of Rs. 10/- each as on record date i.e. 30.06.2006.
2. 6000 shares were allotted as Bonus shares to me on 1st July, 2006 in the ratio of 12:1 and credit of which was given to my demat account in the 2nd week of July, 2006. After 2 months I sold all the shares. What will be my Tax liability?

DEAR ANJANA
YOUR TAX LIABILITY WOULD BE ON THE DIFF BETWEEN
SALE PROCEEDS OF THE SHARES
LESS INDEXED COT OF THE ACQUISITION
CAPITAL GAINS
COST INCURRED FOR THE BONUS SHARES IS NIL, SO ITS COST IS ASSUMED AS NIL.

Agree with Expert. The entire consideration on the bonus shares (6000 shares) would be short term capital gain and has to be taxed accordingly.
Whereas on the original shares (500 shares of Rs. 2 FV), the consideration would be long term capital gain and exempt from any tax.
