Can the husband transfer shared in his name to the wifes Demat and on doing so will sale of these shares falling under long term gains, be adjustable agains the carry forward loss in her tax filing or will it be taxable under the husbands capital gains as applicable ?

Capital gains on Sale of Transferred shares

Quick Summary
If shares are transferred to a spouse without consideration (as a gift), the resulting capital gains are taxable in the husband's hands due to clubbing provisions and cannot be set off against the wife's carried-forward capital losses. To utilize the wife's losses, the transfer must be made for adequate consideration, making the gains taxable in the wife's hands.
Thank you for the clarification
