27 October 2023 Can business losses be set off against short-term capital gains and long-term capital gains.

28 October 2023 No, Can't set off.

17 September 2025 There is a narrow exception: if the short-term capital gain arises from the sale of a business asset and is deemed as such under special provisions (Section 50), as clarified in some judicial cases. In cases where the activity leading to short-term capital gain is intrinsically a business activity (such as the sale of business assets), brought-forward business losses can sometimes be set off against short-term capital gains arising from such transactions, but this is highly case-specific and not a general rule for all business losses and capital gains.
