21 November 2012 friends can anyone tell that while calculating capital gain on sale of shares , what will be the treatment of expenses incurred on transaction , such as service tax , turn tax , other charges etc.
whether these will be deducted from sale consideration or will be ignored.

21 November 2012 Service tax, transaction tax and brokerage paid at the time of purchase shall be added to the cost of the asset.

Similarly, service tax, transaction tax and brokerage paid at the time of sale shall be reduced from the selling price.

Please note that Securities Transaction Tax (STT) is NOT allowed as deduction.

Accordingly it will NOT be added to the cost and it will NOT be reduced from the selling price.
