Quick Summary
This discussion addresses Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax on shares sold after holding them for over a decade. The user, a retired individual with an annual income of Rs. 2 lakhs, is seeking clarification on calculating LTCG and potential exemptions. While one response initially suggests no exemption is available under Section 54 (typically for property sales), another points to a Rs. 1 lakh exemption for LTCG accrued post-April 1, 2018, with gains above this threshold taxed at 10% for individuals.

You shall not be allowed exemption under sections 54 of the act because exemptions shall be allowed only for investing amount out of sale of residential property or agricultural land etc.

Are you sure.

As per this article

need-know/

For all the long term capital gains accrued post 01.04.2018, taxpayers will have an exemption of Rs. 1,00,000. This exemption is only available to the individual taxpayers and not the corporate or partnership firms. Gains above Rs. 1,00,000 will be taxed at the reduced rate of 10% irrespective of the balance income of the taxpayer in the respective year.
