Illinois income tax is based on your federal Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), plus a few state adjustments. If the capital gain is included in your federal AGI, you will also pay state tax on it. There is no special Illinois state tax rate for capital gains, it is taxed at the same rate as ordinary income.
