But as investing has become more digital and multi-platform, users now want a wider view. They do not only want to know how their portfolio performed. They want to know what happens after tax, how gains should be reported, whether AIS will show the transaction, which ITR form applies, a

Every day, millions of Indian investors check their portfolios, track NAVs, and make real-time financial decisions with confidence. Yet every July, many of those same investors are blindsided by a tax liability they never saw coming. The problem is not that people are investing carelessly. It is that the platforms where they invest were never designed to tell them what their decisions would cost at tax time. Investing happens in real time. Tax awareness arrives months later,

For most of the previous generation, tax planning was a February problem. A reminder would arrive from HR, a few investments would be rushed through before March 31, and that would be that for another year. Something has changed. A growing number of young salaried professionals are thinking about taxes in April, the first month of the financial year, not the last. They are checking their Section 80C headroom in June.
