Hi, I am a salaried employee with annual salary of 6 lac/annum. I was involved in the following trading in the NSE stock market. I want to know the STCG and the income tax liability. Please help in determining the exact STCG and tax on it.
Trade-1 - Bought 10 shares of Reliance Industries on 20-05-2008: Rate per share: 2100 Brokerage: 157.50 Service Tax: 19.50 STT: 26.25
Trade-2 - Sold 10 shares of Reliance Industries on 25-06-2008: Rate per share: 2200 Brokerage: 165 Service Tax: 20.40 STT: 27.50

STCG will be calculated as under:
22000=gross sale 2200*10 185.40=less service tax and brokerage ======== 21814.60 net sale price(a) ======== 21000= basic purchase2100*10 167 =add exp brok+stax ====== 21167 total purchase price(b) ====== 647.60 profit (a)- (b) ====== stt is not be included in cost or reduced from the sale price
tax due on 647.60 flat 15 % for fy 2008-09 =97.14 plus surcharge and cess as applicable
note:STCG will be calculated on full year transactions ,suppose you have a loss in other share you can adjust loss from that shares and net loss/profit from all shares will be taxable .
moreover if this question is not hypothetical than you are paying much higher brokerage than normally in the market .you are paying 75p/1000 where as the delivery rate in market is as low of 25p/1000 ,i think u are using icici brokerage ,use new era indiainfoline or india bulls

Hi Rajan, Thanks for the responce. Now I am very much clear with the calculation of STCG.
I have one more doubt. In ITR-2 form, the section 'Short-term capital gain' is very complicated. Please help me in understanding how to fill the following form with the calculations you have just explained.
A. Full value of consideration =? B. Deductions under section 48 B1. Cost of acquisition = ? B2. Cost of Improvement = ? B3. Expenditure on transfer = ? B4. Total = B1 + B2 + B3 = ? C. Balance = A - B4 = ?
