Long Term Capital Gain set off

Tax queries 315 views 6 replies

Hello,

I want to know if Long term Capital Gain can be set off against first Long Term Capital Loss and thereafter, if gain still remains, with Short Term Capital Loss?

Regards

Hi Rajiv,

First you should go for Intra Head adjustments, in case of excess amount you can offset the same with inter-head also. incase there is no LTC Loss then you offset the LTCG with STC Loss.

Amit.

please  refer  section 74(1) (b)  of the Income Tax act 1961  , One can not  set  off  Short  term capital  loss  against  Long term capital gain , In think in any  case . 

Short term capital loss will have to be carry forward. it can not be set off against LTCG
Hello,

STCL can be set off against LTCG
but LTCL can't be set off against STCG.
Yes Krishna is right.

restriction is only for LTCL, StCL can be set off either against STCG or LTCG
Thanku brother
