Ms. garima ji, if you hold the shares as investments, then you can declare either gains or loss from sale of your shares. if you have held your shares as stock in trade, you are supposed to declare minimum 6% of your turnover as total income or you need to audit your books.

Income from intra day trading is to to treated as speculative profit from business, if delivery based trade but sold within one year then short term capital gain, if held more than one year then long term capital gain, profit from future and option is treated as business profit or loss. Broker will provide PL statement for financial year which is to used to file ITR. Even if you suffer loss you should file return before due date only then you can carry forward that loss for set off in future years from gains from shares.
