If you have no other income other than short term capital gains, then you need not pay any tax on it till 1.1 lakhs (If your are male.) Regarding the transaction tax, you cannot claim back transaction tax in case of short term capital gains. It is only allwed to claim back the transaction tax if your shares income is your Trading (Business) income. See some examples below. See example-3 for you.



If your income including short term capital gains are less than 1.1 lakhs, then no tax payable.

Example-1

0,60,000 salary

0,50,000 short term capital gains from shares

------------

1,10,000 Total income

1,10,000 less Exemption

------------

0,00,000 Net taxable income.

=======



Example-2

1,00,000 Salary

1,10,000 Short term capital gains from shares

------------

2,10,000 Total income

1,10,000 less exemption

------------

1,00,000 taxable @10% flat rate

======



Example-3

1,20,000 Your short term capital gains

1,10,000 Less taxs exemption for Male

-------------

0,10,000 Bal. Amt. on which you have to pay tax @10%

=======



Tax on Rs.10,000 @10% including Education cess= 1,030/-

u do not have to pay tax if your total income for the year does not go beyond rs 1,10,000 INCLUDING short term capital gains.

STT is charged and deducted by the stock exchange at the time of transaction. If you see your contract notes you will find out the STT amount deducted in show in the contract note itself,

If your income is above the taxable limit ie.Rs.1,10,000. Then you will be taxed at the rate of 10 % and 3% Educational cess. and chapter VI A deduction will not be available for you. STT is different and income tax is different

in case you may no longer upload, subtract, multiply and divide why did your severe college award you a level? Why did your state enable you to bypass the standardized tests? Accounting oftentimes purely demands low ranges of math and better subject fixing skills. Your excuses are ignorant and don't have logic in contact. what's so stressful approximately fifty 5,000 x 7.5% - 5,600 ? so as that they surpassed the edge via $a million,475. The minimum is fifty 5,000 x 7.5% or 4,a hundred twenty five, so something previous that beats the edge assessments. i think of you do no longer comprehend what it is your flaws extremely are. TRO - incredibly ? Textbooks normally do no longer use the present tables, they even tend to combine up and confuse you on purpose via utilising countless tax years and dates in issues. She by no ability reported which tax 12 months the instructor gave her. it incredibly isn't any longer a real taxpayer question. it incredibly is an educational homework question.
