Also on assuming these are unlisted equity shares and not liable for STT payment, then the applicable sections are: STCA: (period of holding not in excess or equal to 36 months) --> at normal rates of tax u/s 45 LTCA: (period of holding in excess of 36 months) --> Tax payable u/s 112 with indexation in case of resident.
