2. Short Term in case of debt funds is defined as less than or equal to 3 years.

3. Long Term in case of debt funds is defined as more than 3 years.

4. Short term gain formula:

Short term capital gain = Amount realised - Amount invested

Indexed cost of acquisition = Amount invested * (Index in Year of redemption / Index in year of investment)

Long term capital gain = Amount realised - Indexed Cost of Acquisition
