How It Works
Formula, methodology and key concepts explained
Capital gains tax in India depends on the asset type and holding period. Equity held >12 months qualifies for LTCG (12.5% above ₹1.25L exemption). Equity held <12 months attracts STCG at 20%. Property held >24 months is LTCG at 20% (without indexation since Budget 2024).

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Capital Gains Tax Calculator
- LTCG on equity shares and equity mutual funds held >12 months is taxed at 12.5% (without indexation) for gains above ₹1.25 lakh per year. Gains up to ₹1.25L are completely tax-free.
- STCG on equity shares/MF held <12 months is taxed at 20% (increased from 15% in Budget 2024).
- Debt MF and bonds held for any period are taxed at your income tax slab rate — there's no separate LTCG rate anymore (changed in 2023 Finance Act). This makes debt MF less tax-efficient than before.
