Query on short term capital gain on equity in specific scenario ?

POSTED BY gydave ON January 25, 2015 3:48 pm ONE COMMENT

Respected sir, I bought 10 shares of value 10 rs. So total investment is 100 rs. Now in less than a year period, I am selling 5 shares at value 20 rs. Does this transaction will attract short term capital gain though I have sold only 5 shares and I have just got back my input capital only (100 rs)?

    This will come under short term capital gain, As the 5 shares you have sold within one year period. Though you have got back your input capital (100) . What about the remaining shares that are in your DEMAT a/c.
