I made Rs 29 lakh from equities but lost all of it on bogus trading portal. Do I still have to pay income tax on the gains?

ET Wealth Reader's Query: I sold shares worth Rs.5 lakh (long-term) and redeemed mutual funds worth Rs.24 lakh, largely long-term. Unfortunately, I invested the entire amount through a bogus trading portal and lost all the money. Will there still be any tax implications on these gains?
