How to use this calculator
- Enter the purchase cost, the sale value, the dates and any grandfathering value.
- Choose the dates of purchase and sale to match your situation.
- Read the long-term gain, the exempt part and the tax in the result.
Only transactions subject to securities transaction tax qualify in most cases; confirm the conditions.
The result is an estimate for the figures you enter. It is not a filed return, a certificate or professional advice. Rates, thresholds and section numbers change with each Finance Act, and the Income-tax Act, 2025 applies from 1 April 2026 with new section and form numbers.
