Sir,
I am Senior Citizen drawing pension and earning interest on bank deposits and income from house property. My total income after taking into account of all deductions and exemptions cones around ₹375000/- I also earned Short term capital gains of ₹35000/- on sale of equity shares. If I club both the income, it comes around ₹410000/-.I understand that the tax payable on ₹410000/- will be exempted as a tax rebate under section 87A. Please clarify the correct position. If my calculation is wrong please guide me to arrive at the amount of income tax payable. Thanks in advance.
