             There are two types of capital gains:
Tax Rate On Short-Term Capital Gains
	- When the securities transaction tax is not applicable - The STCGT is added to the ITR of the taxpayer and the individual is taxed as per his income tax slab
 
	- When the securities transaction tax is applicable - 15%
 
Short-term Capital Gain = Selling Price - (Cost of Acquisition + Incidental costs of transfer + Cost of improvement)
Tax Rate On Long-Term Capital Gains
	- Except on the sale of equity-oriented funds or equity shares - 20%
 
	- On the sale of equity-oriented funds or equity shares - 10% over and above Rs.1,00,000
 
Long-term Capital Gain = Selling Price - (Index Cost of Acquisition + Incidental costs of transfer + Index Cost of improvement)
