Thanks for the detailed analysis. I have few doubts here.

  1. What is the meaning of long term here? holding period of more than one year or two years?
  2. What’s the explicable tax rates for short term capital gains?
  3. What’s the explicable tax rates for long term capital gains? Do we have exemption of 1.25L similar to stock LTCG?
  4. Similarly, what’s the STCG and LTCG structure on gold MF/ETF? Do we have any exemption of 1.25L there?
