Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax implications when selling mutual funds. If your client sold mutual funds invested in 2013 and 2018 during FY 20-21, the gains are considered Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG). LTCG from mutual funds is taxable only on the amount exceeding £1 lakh, at a rate of 10%. The taxable income is calculated as the difference between the sale price and purchase price, with indexation not being applicable.

Hi VinodKumar

Mutual Funds are taxable when you sell units & depends upon the holding period. In your client case, it is Long Term Capital Gain. If Long term capital gain is upto 1Lakh, then no need to pay any tax on such income. If it exceeds Rs 1lakh then 10% on the excess amt over & above 1 lakh
Yes continuing my friend's answer as above:

Income (LTCG) from mutual funds is the difference between Sales Price and Purchase price.

Indexation is not applicable in case of Shares, Mutual funds.
Thanks for reminding this point.
