Tax Payable on Sell of IPO Shares

Tax queries 179 views 4 replies

I had applied for an IPO of a company in Q-2 FY 2016-17 and was allotted its shares during IPO allotment process. I held the shares of the company till Jul-2021. I sold them them all in Aug-2022 and made an approximate profit of ₹ 85,600/-. 

I had opted for old tax regime for FY 2021-22. My queries are:
1. Will my profit from the sell of shares be considered as LTGC?
2. Do I need to pay any LTGC tax on profit of ₹ 85,600/-?
3. Do I need to use ITR-2 to file tax return for FY 2021-22?
4. Where (on which sheet in the excel file) on ITR form do I need to disclose my profit?

Yes it is LTCG and no tax is liable to pay. if you need any help in your ITR then I can help you. leaving my contact details in your inbox.
Download tax report from broker and you will get the all details for tax filing purposes.

ITR-2 can be used for LTCG
Most broker report are full of errors. do manual calculations

Upto 1 lakh LTCG is exempted so no tax to be paid if this is the only LTCG.
