Dear Sir, If i have 2.5 Lacs Short term capital loss carry forwarded of Previous year & Long term capital gain of 3 lacs from Selling Mutual Funds etc.. No Short term Capital Gain in Same Fin. Year What could be tax impact for this year.. I think Nil 1) First this will compensate against limit of 1.25 lacs as per latest Budget (3-1.25 = 1.75 lacs) & than it would be adjusted against last years Carry forwarded STCG of 2 lacs ? So it would be Nil as of Now.. and still I can get benefit of 25k next year... Pl revert if my Understanding is Correct..

Ans: Your understanding is mostly correct. The long-term capital gain (LTCG) of Rs 3 lakhs will first be reduced by the Rs 1.25 lakh exemption, leaving Rs 1.75 lakhs taxable. This Rs 1.75 lakhs can then be offset against your carried-forward short-term capital loss (STCL) of Rs 2.5 lakhs, making your taxable LTCG nil for the year. Additionally, you will carry forward Rs 75,000 of STCL to the next financial year, which can be used to offset future gains.

Thanks in advance.

Ans: Yes, you can carry forward Capital Loss & adjust the same in the coming years. I can't quote you specific rule, but you can carry forward the Capital Loss to next years.

Ans: Hello dear.
Congratulations on planning to get admission to IISC for your son. Admission is highly competitive, so early preparation will be beneficial. Here are some tips: (1) Strong Focus on the Core subject of Mathematics (2) Learn Python and SQL programming skills (3) Participate in Mathematics Olympiads (RMO, INMO) (4) Join a Coaching Program to learn ISI-specific training (like PiVerb, Cheenta). (5) Encourage solving puzzles and logic games (Sudoku, Chess, Codeforces). (6) In class 10- Build strong basics in ICSE Math, start Olympiad-level problems (7) In class 11 - Solve tough problems, focus on Calculus & Algebra, and start Python (8) In class 12 - take mock tests, solve past ISI papers, revise Probability.
Efforts are endless. One has to make efforts to master the skills from all angles as the DS field is highly challenging. Keep motivating him in any situation i.e. at the time of success or failure. Best of luck to him for his upcoming bright career.

Hi sir, My OBC Certificate issued in 2021. Can I use this in neet 2025 application form for uploading documents? Please explain sir

Ans: Hi, OBC certificate is very old. The validity of the caste certificate is one year. You may use the same certificate for application purposes, but you must have a valid one, including the creamy layer and Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) status, at the time of admission. Your admission will be based on this. Therefore, it is advisable to obtain a new certificate.
Better apply for same and get it ASAP.
