Quick Summary
This discussion explores the taxability of long-term capital gains when a company buys back shares from a shareholder. Initially thought to be taxable for the shareholder, further research suggests it's exempt under Section 10(34A) and the tax liability falls on the company under Section 115QA. The company is responsible for TDS, not the shareholder, though this applies specifically to shares not listed on recognised stock exchanges.
