This discussion clarifies how to declare commission income in an individual's Income Tax Return (ITR), especially when they also have salary income. For minor commission amounts (like £22,000), it's recommended to declare it under 'Income from Other Sources' (IFOS) rather than filing a Profit & Loss statement. The thread also touches upon how to report consolidated share trading losses, advising that individual trade details are necessary for the ITR.

Dear Sir, Pls clarify the following issues....
1) An individual having salary income, also have Commission income TDs thereon deducted 194H, should I show commission income as IFOS or to file p/l and balance sheet.
2) an individual having STGL shere loss in future & option trading, his broker has given consolidated loss figure, how to show this consolidated loss, whereas ITR compulsory to fill sale & purchase date, value also.

1. Depends upon quantum of commission received. If not major source of income, it can be declared u/h. IFOS. 2. You need to calculate turnover from each trades. Based on turnover, you can decide the nature of income.
