Calculate tax on gains from equity, property and mutual funds.
TaxNext's capital gains calculator works out the tax on a gain from selling equity shares or property, applying the post-Budget-2024 short-term/long-term rules and rates. It's aimed at investors and property sellers who need to know how much tax a sale will trigger before they complete it.
Equity held over 12 months is long-term. The first ₹1,25,000 of long-term equity gains in a year is exempt under section 112A — only the remainder is taxed, at 12.5%.
Under the 12-month threshold, this is short-term — the ₹1,25,000 exemption does not apply at all to short-term gains, and the entire gain is taxed at the flat 20% STCG rate.
Property needs 24 months (not 12) to count as long-term. Long-term property gains are taxed at a flat 12.5% — unlike short-term property gains, which would instead be added to other income and taxed at slab rates.
Equity shares (listed, STT-paid) and property, under the rates that took effect from the 23 July 2024 Budget. It does not cover debt mutual funds, unlisted shares, indexation benefit (withdrawn for most assets under the current rules), or the surcharge that applies separately on top of these flat rates for larger gains.
