Business Loss Set Off Against Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) In the given example, the business loss of ₹1 crore in FY 2024-25 can be set off against the Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) of ₹1.10 crore in the same year.
Key Points to Consider - *Business Loss*: The business loss of ₹1 crore can be set off against the LTCG of ₹1.10 crore. - *LTCG*:
The LTCG of ₹1.10 crore is taxable, but the business loss can be adjusted against it. -
*Tax Implications*: After setting off the business loss against the LTCG, the net taxable LTCG would be ₹10 lakhs (₹1.10 crore - ₹1 crore).
Tax Calculation - *Tax on LTCG*: The tax on LTCG is typically 20% after indexation or 10% without indexation, depending on the type of asset and the taxpayer's preference.
- *Tax Liability*: The tax liability on the net LTCG of ₹10 lakhs would be ₹2 lakhs (20% of ₹10 lakhs) or ₹1 lakh (10% of ₹10 lakhs), depending on the tax rate applicable.
