My short term capital gains listed shares and equity mutual funds is Rs 3,00,000 and salary 1,80,000 Total 4,80,000 From 1-4-24 to 31-3-25 How much tax I have to pay I am 52 years Mohan Satpal

Ans: Your income is below 7 lacs and gross tax liability will be 16380. Under new tax regime, you are eligible for rebate upto 25000. However matter is litigative. As per recent judicial decisions, rebate is available even against income taxable as per provisions of 111A.

Accordingly, in my view, tax liability will be Zero

You can calculate tax liability from income tax calculator available at https://eportal.incometax.gov.in/iec/foservices/#/TaxCalc/calculator

Career

Sir I was absent in all my class 12th boards and practical in the year 2023-24 due to a medical illness, now I'm appearing as a regular candidate in the year 2024-25 boards. Will I be eligible for jee advanced 2025 and 2026 as in jee advanced attempt counts start from first appearance in class 12th, will they consider my board 2024 absent as an attempt? Will I be eligible for jee advanced 2025 and 2026? Specifically 2026

Ans: Heera, The eligibility for JEE Advanced 2025 and 2026 relies on how the test authorities see your situation about your attempts in the Class 12 board exams. Candidates can try JEE Advanced two times in successive years maximum. The first year a candidate shows up for the complete set of tests appears in Class 12. That year is not regarded as an attempt or appearance if you missed all Class 12 board tests for medical reasons and did not receive a result. Your legitimate first look will land around 2024–25. Get in touch with the JEE Advanced officials, show medical credentials, and offer paperwork proving your first honest attempt in Class 12 exams to confirm your eligibility. You will be qualify for JEE Advanced 2025 and 2026 if you re-registered for 2024–25 after missing the tests in 2023–24 for a legitimate medical reason.

Right now, only pay close attention to getting ready for the JEE/Other Engineering Entrance Exam.

Value Addition Suggestion: Instead of depending just on JEE, have Plan B and Plan C, appearing for 5-7 Entrance Exams.

All The BEST for Your Prosperous Future.

Question by Swati - Dec 31, 2024Hindi

Career

Hello, My kid is in 9th std CBSE currently and we are looking forward to knowing different career options available in today's times. How do we do that? Second query, is how can we analyse and find her area of interest to plan her future accordingly. Can you please help me with these two queries. Thanks

Ans: Swati Madam, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Try a "Psychometric Test" (of any reliable source) for your son to determine your child's interest, aptitude, attitude, orientation style, and personality style in order to streamline the process of determining the best career option or options for them.

The results of the psychometric test will provide you the top two or three career options for your child, allowing you to choose between the arts and humanities, sciences, and commerce following the 10th Grade.

Your child's academic success across numerous disciplines from 6th Standard to the present is another criterion for determining the appropriate stream.

In order to compete for admission to any of the prestigious universities or institutions following the 12th grade, it is best to begin your child's entrance exam preparation as early as the 10th grade. Please ask if you require any other information.

All The BEST for Your Kid's Prosperous Future.

Hi i passed 12th in 2021 ( covid batch ) since everything was closed so in anxiety joined DU as sciences students but kept simultaneously preparing for neet it was very hazardous to manage both in offline neet prep and bsc so shifted to distance education bsc so i was in Du like 2021-2023 then 2023 took distance mode finally when i couldnot clear cutoff i thought will let this distance finish and side wise join some different and good course so came down to law in reputable law college of south . Is my decision ok or am i going too mmuch

Ans: Hi,

The students from the Covid batch have faced numerous challenges and are still struggling to settle down, including those in school. You have done your utmost to support them. Since you have completed your BSc and are now pursuing a degree in Law, you are in a favorable position.

Consider the possibility of becoming a patent attorney, which is a lawyer specializing in intellectual property law focused on securing and protecting an inventor's rights. Even before you complete your course, I encourage you to seek experiences related to intellectual property rights (IPR).
ALL THE VERY BEST.

Hello Advait. I have around lump sum 35 lacs to invest in stocks and or MF. please suggest the stocks or suitable MFS from retirement corpus perspective. I have around 15Y left for retirement. Also I am doing SIP of 90K in UTI Nifty 50 index fund, PPFAS flexi cap fund and Motilal Oswal Nifty 500 Index fund. I am risk averse and therefore don't do any investment in pure small or mid cap MFs. However you may suggest any Mid or small cap fund which has very good risk to reward ratio and I will start 25K SIP in it. Thank you in advance.

Ans: Diversification is the key Your portfolio is well-diversified across large-cap and flexi-cap funds. Adding quality mid-cap and small-cap funds enhances long-term growth potential.
Risk Management is required to Balance aggressive investments (mid/small caps) with conservative debt funds.
Tax Efficiency also needs to be considered if tax-saving is needed ELSS funds .
This strategy ensures you balance growth and stability for retirement over the next 15 years. Regularly review your portfolio to align with changing financial goals and market conditions. Nitin Narkhede , Founder Prosperity Lifestyle Hub Community.

Money

Took home loan in May 2022. House construction completed in June 2023. Sold old house in Dec 2024. Can I set off the captial gains by repaying my home loan?

Ans: Repaying a home loan does not qualify as a "purchase" or "construction" of a new residential property, so it won't help you claim the exemption. No, you cannot set off capital gains by repaying your home loan. Your Options are -
Invest in a New Property: To save tax on capital gains, invest the proceeds in another residential property within 2 years (purchase) or 3 years (construction).
Capital Gains Account Scheme (CGAS): If you're unable to invest immediately, deposit the gains in a CGAS before the filing of your tax return for the year of sale. This gives you time to utilize the funds while deferring tax liability. Exemption under Section 54EC: Invest up to ?50 lakhs in specified bonds (e.g., REC, NHAI) within 6 months of the sale to claim exemption.

I have 15 L in Icici blue chip fund and shifted my SIP of 25 K to Nippon large cap, I also have 5 K SIPs in Hdfc Mid cap opportunities and 5K in Nippon multicap? Is it the right investment for 35 K a month or need a change..I am 50 Yrs age.I am accumulating for 2 Cr corpus in next 7 years. I already have 45 L in my equity and debt funds. I also want to double SIP in next FY to 70 K a month in same ratio in above funds. Retirement goal is 2 Cr. Please advise

Ans: Continue current SIPs but diversify large-cap allocation slightly.
Allocate additional SIPs in FY 2025 to a mix of large-cap and balanced advantage funds.
Annually rebalance portfolio to maintain an equity-debt ratio that aligns with your risk tolerance and time horizon.
This approach ensures you achieve your retirement goal while managing risks effectively.
