05 December 2024 As such there is no exemption limit, but if your aggregate income except capital gains is less then the basic exemption limit, the to that extent tax liability over the STCG is reduced.
E.g. Say, your basic income is 1 lakh and STCG is 2.50 lakhs, then under new regime your taxable STCG would be 0.50 L.
