It applies this displayed method: Net gain subtracts entered acquisition, improvement, transfer, exemption and loss amounts. Post-23 July 2024 rates apply: listed equity STCG 20%; listed equity LTCG 12.5% above the remaining ₹1.25 lakh annual threshold; selected other LTCG 12.5% without indexation; other STCG/custom treatment uses the entered rate. Health and Education Cess is then added at 4%. Values stay in your browser and are not submitted to a server.
