• Transfer of shares

Sir, I have Join demat account & I am 2nd joint holder. Now I want my seperate Demat account and I wanted distribute existing shares equally and transfer to separate account. Can it possible ? If yes then can I get benifit of Capital gain tax ?
Asked 4 years ago in Capital Gains Tax

Capital gains depend upon the holders of demat account.

The transfer of shares from one demat to another doesnt carry tax provided it is a gift / under the same trading account. In that case, ensure to accompany it with a gift deed.

Transfer Expenses depend upon broker.

Thanks
