If someone has Rs. 10,000 STCG from sell of equity share (STT paid) and he has no other income. This means for Fy 2013-14 he has only income under the head of capital gains i.e. Rs. 10,000 only. Does he required to pay tax of 15.45% of Rs. 10,000 or there wont be any tax liability as total income for the FY 2013-14 is less than Rs. 2,00,000 i.e. minimum slab.
Please help. I had put this query earlier also, but no body replied.

But what about special rate applicable under 111A? IT officer has denied no tax if no other income and asked to pay 15.45% as special rate of tax on Rs. 10,000. Is it right?
