Tax Rules on Long Term Silver Gains
Long-term capital gains tax applies after holding silver beyond the specified period.
Under 2026 tax regulations, silver held for more than 24 months qualifies for Long-Term Capital Gains taxed at 12.5%. If sold before 24 months, gains are treated as short-term and added to your total income, taxed according to your slab rate. This makes long-term holding significantly more tax-efficient, especially for investors in higher income brackets seeking better post-tax returns.
