Frequently asked

What rates does this use?

Short-term capital gains (held under 12 months) at a flat 20%, and long-term gains (12 months or more) at 12.5% after a ₹1,25,000 annual exemption. The post-July-2024 rules for equity and equity mutual funds.

Does this work for property, gold, or debt funds?

No. This is scoped to equity and equity mutual funds only. Other asset classes use different rates and, in some cases, indexation rules that this calculator doesn't model.

Is the ₹1.25 lakh exemption per transaction or per year?

It's an annual exemption across all your long-term equity gains combined, not per transaction. This calculator applies it to the single gain you enter.
