Income from Selling of Digital Gold

Hi All,

As per the income tax act on selling of Digital Gold before 3 year is short term gain which tax according to income tax slab and after 3 year this will be consider as long term and tax as per indexation. I am confuse that  if i sell Digital Gold before 3 year So, which head of income and ITR form  is applicable while filling return, because tax is calculated as per income tax slab not as per capital gain.

Quick Summary
Selling digital gold results in capital gains, taxed as short-term if sold within three years and long-term thereafter. Short-term gains are taxed at your individual income tax slab rate, not a special capital gains rate. You should declare these gains under the Capital Gains schedule (Schedule CG) in either ITR-2 or ITR-3, depending on your overall income.

Its capital gain only, but short term.

So, it should be declared in Schedule CG in ITR2 / ITR3, whichever applicable.

The profit/Loss will be considered under the head Capital Gain. It will be short term capital gain. The  rate of tax applicable on this gain will be that of your income tax rate. No special rate of tax will be applicable.

ITR 2 or ITR 3 will be applicable based on your total income.
