Grandfathered long-term capital gains exempt under Article 13(4) of the India-Mauritius DTAA were held outside total income computation, hence could not be adjusted against brought-forward long-term capital loss; exemption was allowed, while brought-forward long-term capital loss was directed to be set off only against taxable non-grandfathered long-term capital gains. Short TDS credit was remanded for verification and grant as per law. - ITAT en-us Tue, 06 Jan 2026 20:57:36 +0530 Tue, 06 Jan 2026 20:57:36 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=95780 Short-term capital loss from share transactions on which STT was paid was held set offable against short-term capital gains from transactions on which STT was not paid, since s.70(2) permits set-off against gains from any capital asset and does not distinguish based on STT payment; the "similar computation" reference was confined to ss.48-55, so the assessee's computation was accepted and the Revenue's view rejected.
