Income Tax on Long Term Capital Gains on redemption of Equity mutual funds.


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax implications of redeeming equity mutual funds held for over a year, particularly when profits exceed £1 lakh. It addresses whether Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is automatically applied. The consensus is that for resident Indians, TDS is not typically deducted on equity mutual fund units, even if profits are substantial. If TDS has been deducted erroneously, it can be reclaimed by filing an Income Tax Return (ITR).

26 June 2024 Sir, My wife is under zero tax bracket(earns Rs.2.7 lakh per annum) and if she redeems equity mutual funds invested for more than a year and profits crossing 1 lakh, TDS of 10% is deducted. Query is as she is in Zero tax bracket, can she get the deducted TDS refunded on filing IT returns.

26 June 2024 1. TDS is not deducted.
2. Even if deducted the amount is refundable, by filing relevant ITR.
