Annexure A

Guidelines for Preparation of Statement of Financial Transactions (SFT)

The guidelines for preparation of Statement of Financial Transactions (SFT) for Depository transactions are as under:

1. The Depository transaction summary file will be used for pre-filling the gain/income/loss from securities transactions. The Depository Transaction Summary is required to be prepared for user-initiated debit transactions in the demat account. For Off Market debits, information need not be provided if transferor and transferee are same person.

2. In case of a minor, details of legal or natural guardian (PAN, Name etc.) may be

3. The Estimated Sale Consideration for the debit transaction should be determined on the best possible available price of the asset with the depository (e.g. end of day price). The taxpayer will be able to modify the sales consideration before filing the return.

4. The securities should be classified into specified security class for determining the type of asset (short term/long term) and applicable rate.

5. The period of holding (difference between date of sale and date of acquisition of any share/security in the demat account) should be used to classify the asset as short term or long-term asset. First in First out (FIFO) method should be used for identification of corresponding credit in demat account and computation of period of holding. Any capital asset held by the taxpayer for a period of more than minimum period of holding will be treated as long-term capital asset and remaining assets will be classified as short-term asset. The specified minimum period of holding for different asset class is as under:

Security Class Code	Security Class Description	Minimum Period of Holding
LES	Listed Equity Share	12 months
LPS	Listed Preference Share	12 months
LDB	Listed Debenture	12 months
ZCB	Zero Coupon Bond	12 months
CIB	Listed Capital Indexed Bond	12 months
EMF	Unit of Equity Oriented Mutual Fund	12 months
UTI	Unit of UTI	12 months
UBT	Unit of Business Trust	36 months
OTU	Other Units	36 months
OTH	Other Listed Securities (Other than a unit)	12 months

6. For every debit transaction, the corresponding credit transaction should be identified using First in First Out (FIFO) method. The estimated cost of acquisition for the credit should be determined on the best possible available price with the The cost of acquisition can be estimated as per the closing rate on the date (T-2) of transaction for market purchase. The estimated cost of acquisition is to be taken as NIL for OFF Market purchase, IPO or Corporate Action or for any transaction through other than Exchange. The taxpayer will be able to modify the cost of acquisition before filing the return.

7. In relation to a long-term capital asset, being an equity share in a company or a unit of an equity-oriented fund acquired before the 1st day of February, 2018, adjusted cost of acquisition shall be higher of (i) the cost of acquisition of such asset; and (ii) lower of (A) the fair market value of such asset as on 31st January, 2018; and (B) the full value of consideration received or accruing as a result of the transfer of the capital asset. In a case where the capital asset is listed on any recognized stock exchange as on the 31st day of January, 2018, “fair market value” means the highest price of the capital asset quoted on such exchange on the said If there is no trading in such asset on such exchange on the 31st day of January, 2018, the highest price of such asset on such exchange on a date immediately preceding the 31st day of January, 2018 when such asset was traded on such exchange shall be the fair market value. In case the cost of acquisition of asset acquired before the 1st day of February, 2018 is not easily available, the adjusted cost of acquisition may be taken as lower of (A) the fair market value of such asset; and (B) the full value of consideration.

8. The Cost Inflation Index should be used to determine estimated indexed cost of acquisition wherever applicable.

9. The details of demat account holders and summary values for the demat account for the reporting period should be reported in Depository Account Summary (DEP_ACC_SU MM.TXT).
