12 February 2016 1, what is the link between service tax and taxation on income from share market?

2. Is it not obvious that all the incomes earned are to be offered to tax?

3. the rate of tax is dependent on the nature of income. Short term capital gains will attract 15%, long term gains: nil, dividend: Nil. speculative income: taxed at slab rate.

2.

12 February 2016 Hi... Service tax and Income Tax are operate in different scenario.. there is no link between these two...i.e. if someone is paying Service tax on certain transactions dosent imply that he/she need to pay income tax simultaneously on same transaction.. or vise-versa.. If he/she made profit or loss on share tranding then only profit portion required to be taxed under Income tax, whereas service tax is charged on broker's commission on both sale and purchase transaction.......
thanks...
