STCG in ITR2 - Tax calculated at applicable rate

465 views 4 replies

When filling up ITR2 for my son who is having both salary income as well as income from selling shares which I have shown under CG - Short term Capital Gains 111A and also filled the breakup under Information about receipt of Capital Gain - Point 1. - Short term capital gain taxable at 15% flat rate. The Tax working in ITR 2 shows as Gross Income including STCG and rate of income tax is calculated at usual applicable rate. It does not calculate 15% on STCG amount entered. Can somebody help where I am committing mistake?

1. Check that the schedule  SI is confirmed.

2. The short term capital gain is taxed at slab rate, till the basic exemption limit is exhausted. Only after that it is charged at 15% rate.
