In case in AY 2010-11 there was a business loss of Rs 4.00 lacs. It is c/fd to the next year. In AY 2011-12, it will be called as brought forward business loss.
Such b/fd business loss can be set off against any business income of AY 2011-12.
It can not be set off against LTCG.
However, if there is business loss in AY 2011-12 itself, it can be set off against same year's capital gain.
