Capital Gains Tax Calculator

Capital gains tax is levied on the profit earned from the sale of capital assets like stocks, property, gold, and bonds. The tax rate depends on the type of asset and the holding period.

Our calculator helps you determine the exact tax liability on your capital gains, considering different asset types, holding periods, and indexation benefits where applicable.

Types of Capital Gains:

Short-Term Capital Gains (STCG):

• Equity/Stocks: Held for less than 1 year - 15% tax
• Other Assets: Held for less than 3 years - As per income tax slab

Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG):

• Equity/Stocks: Held for more than 1 year - 10% tax (above ₹1 lakh)
• Property/Gold/Bonds: Held for more than 3 years - 20% with indexation

Indexation Benefit:

For long-term capital gains on assets other than equity, you can claim indexation benefit which adjusts the purchase price for inflation, thereby reducing the taxable gain.
