Clarification on LTCG/STCG on SWAP of shares

357 views 2 replies

I received UNION BANK OF INDIA shares after the merger of Andhra Bank & Corporation Bank.  I want to clarify the following to calculate the STCG / LTCG.

1.  Record Date : 23-03-2020 (Opening Price 28.75 (BSE) and 27.15 (NSE)

2. Allotment Date : 01-04-2020 (Opening Price 29.9 (BSE) and 29.2 (NSE)

3. Actual Allotment Date :16-04-2020 (I received the shares in my Demat A/c on this day)

I would like to know whether the Record Date(1), Allotment Date(2) or Actual Allotment Date(3) should be considered for calculating STCG / LTCG.

Which price to consider? BSE or NSE?.

Finally, I have incurred expenses on buying of Andhra Bank.  Can I use the same expenses for Union Bank of India?

In my opinion
actual allotment date should be considered.
BSE price should be considered.
Post any merger, calculation dates remain the original pertinent date only. No gain arises on merger and receipt of new shares in lieu of old shares.
