STT and LTCG should not co-exist, one of them must go: Nilesh Shah
Reported by: BusinessLine ·
Summary
BusinessLine reported that Nilesh Shah, Managing Director of Kotak AMC, said securities transaction tax (STT) and long-term capital gains tax (LTCG) should not co-exist, and one of them must go. The same report said Shah spoke on how global investors are rediscovering India and on how valuations are far more reasonable. STT is a tax charged on every purchase and sale of shares on an exchange. LTCG is the tax on profit made from selling shares held for more than a year. The headline gives no figure, date or official proposal, so this is Shah's stated view, not a rule change.
