FAQs
What is LTCG tax harvesting? ⌄
LTCG tax harvesting is the strategy of selling long-term equity investments to realize up to ₹1.25 lakh of tax-free LTCG every year, then immediately reinvesting at the current price to reset your cost basis.
How much LTCG is tax-free every year in India? ⌄
Under Section 112A, LTCG of up to ₹1,25,000 per financial year from listed equity shares and equity-oriented mutual funds is exempt from tax. LTCG above this limit is taxed at 12.5%.
Which investments qualify for LTCG tax harvesting? ⌄
Listed equity shares held for more than 12 months and equity-oriented mutual funds held for more than 12 months qualify as LTCG under Section 112A.
What is the grandfathering rule for LTCG? ⌄
For investments purchased on or before 31 January 2018, cost can be grandfathered using the higher of purchase price and the lower of 31-Jan-2018 price and sale price, reducing taxable LTCG.
Is LTCG harvesting legal in India? ⌄
Yes. LTCG harvesting is a legal tax optimization strategy under Section 112A. India currently has no wash-sale rule that disallows same-day reinvestment.
