Paras Defence And Space Technologies’s stock split is not a taxable event, as it doesn’t change your total investment value. However, your cost per share is adjusted, which may impact capital gains tax when selling. Capital gains tax on stocks is structured as follows: Short-term Capital Gains (STCG): If shares are sold within one year, the STCG tax rate is 20%, excluding applicable surcharge and cess. Long-term Capital Gains (LTCG): If shares are sold after one year, the LTCG tax rate is 12.5% on earnings exceeding ₹1.25 lakh. For more clarity consult a tax professional for details.
