In India, taxes on stock investments include short-term capital gains tax (STCG) and long-term capital gains tax (LTCG). STCG applies to profits from selling stocks held for less than one year, taxed at the investor’s applicable income tax rate. LTCG tax applies to gains from selling stocks held for more than one year, with a flat tax rate of 10% (without indexation) on gains exceeding ₹1 lakh annually.
