It depends on

date of purchase

date of sale

whether securities transaction tax was applicable or not ?

If the shares are sold within 12 months, then short term capital capital gain tax will apply. Otherwise no.

I assume that share sold are short term and selling price is arrived after deducting selling expense. So In your ITR return you will have to show Rs.542/- as short term capital gain & the same will be taxed separately @ 15%. Thanks & Regard Swapnil Harwani Mob. No.9175307291
