01 July 2013 The entire income is to be clubbed to-gether and minimum 85% must be spent to get the exemption. Now, the logic is where from you got the money to invest in shares it is only of the Charitable trust either by way of donation or saving of 15% early earned income so the investment income is also in the nature of charity.
