New rules for Capital Gains Tax exemption
The Income Tax Department has notified rules that exempt Capital Gains Tax on equity transactions. Accordingly, acquisition of equity shares by venture capital or investment funds, employee stock options, FDI by nonresident Indians and off market transactions in schemes approved by courts and regulators will continue to be exempt from Capital Gains Tax. However, entering into sham transactions - such as acquiring listed equity shares through a preferential issue in a company whose shares are not frequently traded or some off-market transactions - will attract Capital Gains Tax if Securities Transaction Tax (STT) is not paid on them.
