Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies who is liable for Short-Term Capital Gains (STCG) tax when shares allotted through an IPO are subsequently sold. Even if you funded the IPO application and the money was deducted from your bank account, the STCG tax liability rests with the actual allottee of the shares, who is your family member in this scenario. Transferring the sale proceeds to your bank account does not shift the tax burden.
I sold those shares of family member and got the amount released from demat account into my family member bank account and then i took the entire amount from their bank to my bank
