Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax liability for an individual with both salary income and short-term capital gains (STCG) in the financial year 2021-22. It explains how STCG is taxed separately at 15% and how it impacts the overall tax calculation, including standard deductions and the availability of the Section 87A rebate. The final tax liability is determined after considering all income sources and applicable deductions.

Whether there is any deductions?
Yes 3lakhs. Is rebate available??
Yes rebate will be available of 12,500 rupees but tax liability is coming for 10,400 rupees
Tax liability Rs.10,400 is for STCG???
As net tax liability is below 5lakhs then tax liability will be Nil by claiming rebate. am I correct???
No no, Actually you have STCG which is taxable @ 15% .

720000 rupees from salaries. Standard deduction of 50000 rupees should be deducted.

you will get rebate of 12500 rupees.

Your capital gain tax is 10500 rupees and tax on normal income is 6000 rupees.

So total tax liability is 16500 rupees from that rebate of 12500 rupees should be deducted means 4000 rupees plus cess @ 4%. So total tax liability will be 4160 rupees
Got it. Thank you
Your welcome

Rebate of income-tax in case of certain individuals.

87A. An assessee, being an individual resident in India, whose total income does not exceed [five hundred thousand] rupees, shall be entitled to a deduction, from the amount of income-tax (as computed before allowing the deductions under this Chapter) on his total income with which he is chargeable for any assessment year, of an amount equal to hundred per cent of such income-tax or an amount of [twelve thousand and five hundred] rupees, whichever is less.

Therefore 87A rebate is not allowed in the instant case.
