I have sold my home on 29 Oct 2009. I have to pay short term capital gains tax from the sale. I want to know when i have to pay this tax? December 15 or March 31?

If I delay my payment, how much fine & what rate of interest I have to pay?

Please help me with the information.

You have to pay tax after computing your total income on/before 31st march 2009....

By total income, I mean salary+business income+capital gains+income from other sources...

Thank you very much for your reply,

I have gone through an advertisement from IT dept.. saying that, pay Advance tax before 15 th Dec.. and it also says that, one has to pay tax in 3/4 instalments if the total tax exceeds Rs. 10,000 other than the TDS.

Could you please clarify me on this & whether I understood correctly or not.

Hi Mr. Satish

First of all you need to know that whether your tax liability on total income including salary income, house property income, capital gains and other incomes exceeds Rs. 10,000/-. If so, then your are required to pay advance tax as follows:

Tax payable	Due date
30% of the total tax	On or before Sep 15, 2009
60% of the total tax – tax previously paid on 1^st installment	On or before Dec 15, 2009
100% of the total tax -tax previously paid on 1^st and 2^nd installment	On or before Mar 15, 2009
