For both Gold ETF investments, any short-term capital gains (holding period of 12 months or less) are taxed at your individual income tax slab rate. The flat 20% rate does not apply because Gold ETFs are commodity-backed instruments, not equity funds, regardless of any systemic misclassifications showing up in your AIS.
