Charity payment deduction from LTCG ?

If my LTCG is 20 lac and If I do a charity payment of Rs 2 lac to a temple, then while calculating the tax on LTCG, will it be considered as 20 lac or 18 lac?

Thanks

it will consider as 20 LAC.

Provision of section 80G will be applicable for donations .

as long as donation is not from exempt income it can be claimed as an exemption.

the percentage of deduction and the limits have to be verified.

so you will get a deduction but might not be to a maximum amount of Rs.2 Lacs

oh..that means I will not get any tax exemption on the charity payment. (I thought the charity payment is 100% tax exempted).


Thanks

Thanks Praveen, any formula to calculate the limit of charity donation exemption would be great.

Thanks

no formula as such but as your are telling it is a temple probably u can get 50% deduction. but ensure that you get the receipt for payment of donation.

If the temple is registered for giving deduction U/S 80G then you can get a maximum deduction of Rs.2Lakh. But I am not sure regarding one more thing that whether 80G can be availed against LTCG.

Can i deduct payment to the broker (around 25000) from LTCG?

 

Thanks

If for selling the property (on which you made LTCG) you paid to the broker then this will be deducted while calculating LTCG as it is a cost of transfer.
