How the Capital Gains Tax works
Computes short-term and long-term capital gains on listed shares, equity and debt funds, property and gold, including the July 2024 listed-asset changes and indexation only where the law still allows it.
Formula / method. Gain = sale − (cost or indexed cost) − allowed expenses. Holding period picks STCG vs LTCG per asset class. Tax = gain × the encoded special rate.
When to use it. Use it before you sell a house, a debt fund, or a large equity lot. Grandfathering and 1.25-lakh listed-equity exemption need care.
How to run a comparison
- Open Capital Gains Tax from Home search, the Finance Studio hub, or this URL.
- Copy amounts, rates or dates from a document you already have — not a round marketing figure.
- Read the headline result and any breakdown (schedule, slabs, or intermediate rows).
- Change one input at a time so you can see what actually moves the answer.
- Cross-check with a related calculator below, then confirm statutory rates before you act.
Nothing you type is uploaded for server-side processing. Save or screenshot an output if you need it later; we do not keep a server-side history.
Notes and assumptions
Indexation uses the encoded CII table. Off-market costs and improvement must be typed. This is not a schedule of the ITR.
Results are estimates for education and planning only. They are not financial, tax, medical, or legal advice. Slabs, scheme rates and product terms change; verify against official notifications or a qualified professional before acting.
