Line 46. There you go.
So your actual income tax on Lines 44 and 45 did not change. So the capital gains are not being taxed for income taxes.
However, Line 46 changed. That is the Premium Tax Credit for having health insurance through the Healthcare Marketplace. That credit is based on all of your income, including Capital Gains. So when your income increases (such as Capital Gains), your Premium Tax Credit decreases. So your repayment of the Premium Tax Credit on Line 46 will cause your overall tax payment to increase.
So even though the Capital Gains are not directly taxed, that 'extra' income is affecting other things on your tax return (the Premium Tax Credit on Line 46) which increases your overall tax payment.
