Bogus STCG or not - Since the source of purchase has been disputed as the registration of broker was cancelled much before the transaction of purchase made by the assessee, period of holding of equity share is reckoned from the date on which the 9000 equity shares of VIP Industries Limited were credited to the Demat account of the assessee up to the date when the shares were sold and equity shares sold were debited to the Demat account. This period in the instant case is less than 12 months, we therefore hold that the capital gain is "Short Term Capital Gain" liable to be taxed u/s. 111A of the Act. - AT
