Quick Summary

Gold and Silver ETF STCG should generally be reported in Schedule CG of ITR-3 under 'Sale of assets other than A1 to A5' (Sr. No. 6), unless specifically covered by Section 50AA. Such gains are typically taxed at applicable slab rates.

24 June 2026 To report Gold/Silver ETF short-term capital gains in ITR-3, navigate to Schedule CG. If the units fall under the strict Section 50AA mandate (purchased between April 2023 and March 2025), enter the transaction particulars under the "Section 50AA / Specified Mutual Funds" line item. For newer short-term holdings, enter them under the general STCG section for other assets (not covered u/s 111A). Both approaches route the net gain to be taxed at your standard income slab rates.
