Introducing the Capital Gains Calculator — LTCG & STCG in Seconds

ℹ️ Informational only — not tax advice. Always confirm with a qualified chartered accountant before filing.

Whether a profit is taxed at 12.5% or 20%-plus comes down to two things: the asset and how long you held it. The new Capital Gains Calculator sorts both out and shows your estimated tax instantly.

What it does

• Auto-classifies the gain as long-term or short-term from your buy and sell dates.
• Right rate per asset: 12.5% LTCG, 20% equity STCG, slab-rate STCG for property/other.
• Equity exemption built in: applies the ₹1.25 lakh annual LTCG exemption automatically.
• Net after tax: deducts expenses and shows what you actually keep.
• Private: every figure stays in your browser.

Why it matters

The July 2024 rules changed the maths — a flat 12.5% long-term rate, a higher equity exemption, a steeper 20% equity STCG, and no more indexation for most assets. Estimating the tax before you sell lets you time disposals across financial years and use your annual exemption instead of finding out at filing time.
