Capital Gains Tax Calculator

Estimate short-term and long-term capital gains tax on property sales.

Selling a property in India can trigger short-term or long-term capital gains tax depending on how long the asset was held and the nature of the property. This calculator provides an indicative tax estimate on your gain using holding-period bands aligned with common residential scenarios (including the 24-month threshold for long-term treatment in many cases).

Long-term capital gains on property are taxed differently from short-term gains, and exemption limits, cess, and surcharge can change with notifications. Indexation rules have evolved. The tool reflects simplified illustrative rates for planning conversations, not a tax return.

Always file and compute liability with a chartered accountant. If you are reinvesting proceeds into another home in Pune, browse our projects or speak with 3 Works Properties.

Frequently asked questions

What is long-term capital gains on property?

When a capital asset is held beyond the applicable period (often 24 months for immovable property), gains may qualify as long-term and taxed under LTCG rules. This tool uses illustrative LTCG rates for planning.

What is the LTCG exemption limit?

Statutory exemption thresholds change with Finance Acts. The calculator applies simplified assumptions. Confirm current limits with your CA.

Does indexation apply?

Indexation benefits for property LTCG were removed from FY 2024-25 in many cases. The tool reflects non-indexed illustrative computation.

Can I offset gains against losses?

Loss set-off and carry-forward rules exist but are not modelled here. Professional tax filing is recommended.
