How are ESOPs (Employee Stock Options) taxed?

ESOPs are taxed at two stages: (1) On exercise — the difference between Fair Market Value (FMV) and exercise price is taxed as perquisite/salary income. (2) On sale — capital gains tax applies based on the holding period after exercise.

I have two houses — which one is self-occupied?

If you own two houses, you can designate only one as self-occupied (tax-free notional rent). The other becomes 'deemed-to-be-let-out', and you must pay tax on notional annual rent. However, you can claim full interest deduction on both home loans.

What is the surcharge on high income?

A surcharge is levied on income above ₹50 Lakh: 10% for ₹50L-1Cr, 15% for ₹1Cr-2Cr, and 25%/37% for higher slabs. Marginal relief provisions apply to avoid cliff-edge taxation, which we handle carefully.

What is Priority Expert Support?

You get a dedicated tax expert who can be reached via WhatsApp and email with faster response times (within 4 hours on working days), ensuring senior-level attention to your complex case.

Can I claim deduction on principal repayment of home loan for two homes?

Section 80C allows deduction on principal repayment for all self-occupied and let-out properties, but the total 80C limit is capped at ₹1.5 Lakh across all investments.
