  • With Union Budget 2025 approaching, taxpayers eagerly await potential relief measures. While no changes to the current capital gains tax framework are expected, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's 2024 Budget had hiked short-term and long-term capital gains taxes to 20% and 12.

The article discusses expectations from Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman regarding potential changes to capital gains tax in the upcoming Budget 2025. Investors and market analysts are particularly interested in whether there will be any adjustments to the tax rates or holding periods for different asset classes. There is speculation about simplifying the tax structure, possibly aligning the holding periods for long-term capital gains across various asset types, and addressing the disparity in tax rates between equity and debt investments. The article also mentions the anticipation around increasing the threshold for tax-exempt long-term capital gains from equity investments, which currently stands at ₹1 lakh. Additionally, there is a call for clarity on the taxation of digital assets like cryptocurrencies. The overall sentiment is one of cautious optimism, with stakeholders hoping for measures that would encourage investment and simplify tax compliance.
