14 October 2020 Company is having services business and F&O business. In past, sometime F&O business income exceeds services business income or sometimes f&O business happens loss. In FY 2019-20, company suffered F&O business huge loss and on the other side company also made good turnover in services business income and made resultant positive net profit. Becoz of the good services turnover, company is liable to pay income tax on service income and f&o business loss cannot be set off. It happens on many occasion in past that company made F&O business loss and the same was carried forward for set off and pay tax on net business profit where F&O business profit is more than services business income.
Please advice whether becoz of huge loss in F&O business will be treated as speculative loss instead of business loss and good turnover of service business income.
Thanks in advance.

31 October 2021 F&O business is not speculative business, but non-speculative business. & hence profit & loss from such business can be adjusted with other PGBP income.
