Capital Gains Tax for AY 2026-27: STCG and LTCG on Shares and Mutual Funds, the Section 87A Rebate Trap, and How the Section 50AA Debt-MF Rule Bites
Post-23 July 2024 capital gains regime: STCG on listed equity at 20% (Sec 111A), LTCG at 12.5% above Rs 1.25L (Sec 112A). Other assets at 12.5% no indexation (Sec 112) — but resident individuals/HUFs keep a transitional indexation choice on land/building acquired pre-23 July 2024.

This is the byline for articles produced by TaxSocial's own editorial desk rather than by an individual contributor. Every article under this name is written from the primary source — the Act, the rules made under it, the gazette notification, the circular or the judgment — and is checked against that source before it is published. Articles carry the date they were published and are updated when the law moves. How we work, and how to report an error, is set out on the Editorial Team page.
