Tax queries 117 views 1 replies

Is the buyback tax payable on issue to issue basis or on aggregate basis?

Shares tendered for buyback relate to separate issues and therefore the company needs to calculate the difference between buyback price and the issue price. Refer table below for my query.

Anxiously waiting for an opinion, if someone can throw some light. I did not find any mention of such a situation in the Income Tax Act...
