Short term capital gain from share


This query is : Resolved 

24 April 2022 Sir
I have taxable income below 5 lakh but during the year have earned short term capital gain from sale of shares rs 200000
How to calculate income tax

24 April 2022 15% tax payable on 200000 short term capital gains.

26 April 2022 Thanks for reply sir
But by taxable income is below 5 lakh. Am i still need to pay tax. Can i treat this short term capital gain as business income and need not required to pay tax as i am below taxable limit
If yes then what are pros and cons of treating short term capital gain as business income

26 April 2022 Yes, tax audit applicable if turnover exceed one crore. Higher tax applicable in case of higher profits.

26 April 2022 When the total income of an individual or HUF is upto Rs. 5,00,000 then he claim rebate u/s 87Q upto Rs. 12,500.
In your case, since your STCG is Rs. 2,00,000, a higher tax rate will apply in your case, and you have to pay tax.

30 April 2022 Thanks for reply
