The money you earned from ICICI is called short term capital gain. It is taxed at 15%. But you have to pay this tax only if at the end of the year all your short term gains + losses is positive. You can login to q.zerodha.com and check the P&L statement.

If you are an Investor , then you have booked Capital Gain. Further Investment , price reduction wont reduce the Gain in other shares unless booked in the same financial year.
