Direct tax Code: Capital Gain taxation

September 20, 2010 1033 Views 0 comment Print

Indian-listed shares:-Long-term capital gains on transfer of the above securities (where securities transaction tax is payable) would continue to be eligible for a 100% deduction, and remain exempt from tax. The DTC has reduced the tax burden substantially for short-term small investors. Short-term capital gains on such securities (taxable at 15.45%) would be eligible for 50% deduction and thereafter taxed as per the normal slab rates applicable. Effectively, the tax under DTC would range between 5% and 15%, depending on the tax bracket in which an individual falls. Small investors (with an income between Rs 2 lakh and Rs 5 lakh) would pay only 5% capital gains tax.
