short term capital gains and STT


This query is : Resolved 

29 July 2008 I am an investor and not a trader in stock market.When I purchase a share ,the broker charges STT. Whether this STT is includible in the cost of acquisition? Similarly while selling the share ,whether the STT charged is to be deducted as expenditure. Has there been any change in the provisions for A.Y. 2008-09
