19 August 2007 Trading in derivatives is like trading in shares only.


Speculative transaction means the transation is settelled without being taking the actual delivery.

Speculative income definition does not include the derivatives. So derivatives are taxable under the head "Capital Gain".

So Trading in derivatives is neither a speculative nor a normal business income. And loss in derivatives cannot be set off against the normal business income.
