Capital Gains Tax Calculator Nepal (FY 2082/83 & 2083/84)
Work out the capital-gains tax on a single NEPSE share trade — one buy, one sell — with the complete six-fee cost stack (broker commission, SEBON fee, NEPSE fee, DP charge and name-transfer) and the correct fiscal-year rate. It covers both FY 2082/83 (enacted) and FY 2083/84 (proposed), selects the rate from your sell date, and applies the long-term rate only when a lot is held more than 365 days.

How CGT on NEPSE shares works
Capital-gains tax on listed Nepali shares is set by the fiscal year of the sale and by how long you held the shares. Nepal's fiscal year runs Shrawan 1 to the end of Ashad (about mid-July to mid-July). A lot held more than 365 days qualifies for the long-term rate; 365 days or fewer is short-term. Gains are taxed; losses are not. The tax is applied to the gross gain — the fees you pay are a real cost to you, but they are not deducted from the amount the tax is calculated on.
The rates
| Fiscal year | Long-term (>365d) | Short-term (≤365d) | Institution | Status | AD window |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2082/83 | 5% | 7.5% | 10% | ENACTED | 2025-07-17 → 2026-07-16 |
| 2083/84 | 7.5% | 10% | 10% | PROPOSED — NOT YET ENACTED | 2026-07-17 → 2027-07-15 |
FY 2082/83 rates are enacted and binding. The FY 2083/84 rates come from the Finance Bill tabled on 29 May 2026 and are shown as proposed until Parliament enacts them — the calculator labels any result computed on a proposed year so you always know whether the number rests on binding law.
The six fees
Every NEPSE trade carries a broker commission (tiered on the trade value — a flat NPR 10 up to Rs 2,500, then 0.36% down to 0.24% for the largest trades), a SEBON fee of 0.015%, a NEPSE fee equal to 20% of the broker commission, a DP charge of NPR 25 per side, and — on the sell side only — a NPR 5 name-transfer charge. The calculator itemises all of them for both the buy and the sell.
Frequently asked
Is 365 days long-term or short-term? Exactly 365 days is short-term. You need to hold more than 365 days for the long-term rate.
Which year's rate applies? The fiscal year of your sell date, not your buy date.
Are the fees deducted from my taxable gain? No. The tax is on the gross gain. The fees reduce your actual net profit, which the calculator shows separately.
What if I made a loss? No capital-gains tax is due on a loss.
