Tax on STCG and LTCG

160 views 4 replies

Hi, 

 

For financial year 2025-26,

 

I have 2 scenario.

 

(1)

 

If I have STCG on Stock/Mutual Fund RS 4,00,000. No other income.

 

So according to slab rate 0 to 4,00,000 no tax.

 

 Do I need to pay 0 tax?

 

(2)

 

If I have LTCG on Stock/Mutual Fund RS 5,25,000. No other income. 

 

5,25,000 - 1,25,000(benifit of limit) = 4,00,000

 

Than,

according to slab rate 0 to 4,00,000 no tax 

 

Do I need to pay 0 tax?

  1. Your tax liability will be 20K + cess
  2.  Tax liability will be 12.5K + cess.

Can you explain, how to calculate it?

Basic exemption limit is Rs. 3 lakhs. Being no other income the Capital gains in both cases will get reduced by the basic exemption.

For Capital gains u/s. 111A & 112A the rebate under sec. 87A not eligible. So pay tax at special rates for remaining 1 lakh capital gains.

But for financial Year 2025-26 new basic examption limit is Rs. 4 lakhs still need to pay TAX. Can you explain.
