Capital Gain Tax

Tax queries 841 views 7 replies

If I purchase 100 shares at Rs. 100 per share on 01st July, 2010 from listed stock exchange.

However on 03rd July, 2010 I came to know that my shares cannot be delivered to me as the person who was selling was unable to deliver. So I get 100 shares back at Rs. 105/share.

In this Scenario, does Capital Gain arise?

If yes, how?

Thanks

How can it be considered as speculation gain because the other party failed to deliver but I had ordered genuine purchase.

 

dear sunny

speculation transaction is arises when there is no transfer between the parties and they book a profit without transfer.though there is genuine purchase but it is difficult to conveyance ao in regard to this.

Thanks Tarun.
