Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether short-term capital gains (STCG) are taxable if they fall below the Rs. 2,50,000 income tax exemption limit. The consensus is that if your total income, including STCG, remains under this threshold, no tax is payable on the STCG. While STCG and general income tax calculations are separate, losses can be carried forward.
