TAX ON LONG-TERM CAPITAL GAINS [SECTION 112]
(i) Where the total income of an assessee includes long-term capital gains, tax is payable
by the assessee @ 20% on such long-term capital gains. The treatment of long-term capital
gains in the hands of different types of assessees are as follows -
(1) Resident individual or Hindu undivided family:
Income-tax payable at normal rates on total income as reduced by long-term capital
gains plus 20% on such long-term capital gains.
However, where the total income as reduced by such long-term capital gains is below the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax then such long-term capital
gains shall be reduced by the amount by which the total income as so reduced falls short
of the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax and the tax on the
balance of such long-term capital gains will be calculated @ 20%.
(2) Domestic Company:
Long-term capital gains will be charged @ 20%.
(3) Non-corporate non-resident / foreign company:
Long-term capital gains will be charged @ 20%.
(4) Residents (other than those included in (i) above)
Long-term capital gains will be charged @ 20%.
(ii) The proviso to section 112 states that where the tax payable in respect of any income
arising from the transfer of listed securities or units or zero coupon bonds, being long-term
capital assets, exceeds 10% of the amount of capital gains before indexation, then such
excess shall be ignored while computing the tax payable by the assessee.
(iii) For this purpose, "listed securities" means securities as defined by section 2(h) of the
Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956; and "unit" means unit of a mutual fund specified
under section 10(23D) or of the Unit Trust of India.
(iv) The provisions of section 112 make it clear that the deductions under chapter VIA cannot
be availed in respect of the long-term capital gains included in the total income of the
assessee.

in case he is of above of 65 years then
30% on horse race
and now gross income is (290000-10000) = 280000
and LTCG is 150000
so Gross Total Income under any other head is 130000
so let say upto 185000 no tax is here so
130000 is exempt and remaining balance Rs. 55000 will be non taxable from LTCG
so from LTCG (150000-55000) = 95000 will be chargeable as 20%
so tax will be
10,000*30% = 3000
+
95000*20% = 19000 plus cess
Thanks
