Manisha was allotted stock options which she exercised in 2007 at a total price of 10 lakhs. She sold them in 2010 at a selling price of 36 lakhs through the exchange and paid STT.
Does she need to pay income tax on the gains of 26 lakhs?
Does she need to show the gain as business income in her tax return since it exceeds 20 lakhs?
Does she need to get her transactions audited?
Thanks for the help in getting an answer to the above questions.
