Long-Term Capital Gain Tax

Long-term capital gain tax is the tax imposed on profits from selling shares or financial securities held for a period of at least three years. The tax rate applied is typically lower than the short-term capital gains tax, which are profits from the sale of shares held for a shorter duration.

Depository Participant

A depository participant is a financial institution that acts as a bridge between a depositories like NSDL/CDSL and investors. Moreover, a depository participant is responsible for holding shares in the Dematerialized format in a Demat account.

At the same time, a depository participant gives traders and investors access to an online trading account that can be used to buy and sell securities. The right depository participant will also ensure that your securities are safe.

Annual Net Profit Margin

A Net Profit Margin is the ratio of a company’s net profits to revenues. The formula to calculate Net Profit Margin is:

Net Profit Margin = Net Profit* / Revenue * 100

*Net profit = Revenue - Cost of goods - Operating Cost - Other Expenses - Interest - Taxes

Net Profit Margin is expressed as a percentage, which means that you can compare the financial health of multiple companies.

A company can use its Net Profit Margin to understand whether its strategies and business models are effective.

Capital Growth

Capital growth is the profits an investment generates on the principal amount. Since the capital grows on earning profits, the term capital growth is also used to describe the overall corpus of an individual (principal + profits).

Equity Delivery

In equity delivery, shares are delivered to an investor’s Demat account after the settlement period. That’s why it is called equity delivery. However, equity delivery is also known as delivery trading and long term investing.

For example, let’s say you place an order for 10 HDFC shares on Tuesday with a view of holding onto them for the long term. The trade will be settled on Thursday shortly after which the shares will be delivered to your Demat account.

Deferred Tax Asset

A deferred tax asset is an item on a company’s financial statement that can be used to get tax relief, generally in the event of overpaying taxes or net losses that are carried forward.

Companies tend to deduct these overpayments or losses for accounting purposes and to reduce their overall taxable income. Common examples of deferred tax assets include:

  • Depreciation of fixed assets
  • Net financial loss
  • Bad debt
