This discussion clarifies whether Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) are subject to double taxation. The consensus is that LTCG is not taxed twice. Instead, it is taxed at a specific rate of 10%, rather than being added to your income and taxed according to your slab rate.

I have Shares LTCG of RS 2 lakh. That means LTCG tax would be 10% of (2 lakh - 1 lakh) = RS 10000 My query is does LTCG goes through double tax i.e. LTCG Tax and Income Tax as per slab rate.
