    How are ESOPs taxed?

    ESOPs are generally taxed at two stages:

    > At the time of exercise: The difference between the Fair Market Value (FMV) of the shares and the exercise price is treated as a perquisite and taxed according to your applicable income tax slab.

    > At the time of sale: When you sell the shares, the difference between the sale price and the FMV on the exercise date is treated as capital gains. The applicable tax depends on factors such as the holding period and whether the shares are listed or unlisted.
