For AY 2022-23 I had b/f LTC loss of 50000 In AY 2022-23, I had LTCG of Rs 14000 and Speculative loss of 2500 So erroneous, I Adjusted the same and took set off of LTCG of rs 11500, which was available for set off against b/f loss
Now ITDpt , disallowed Specualative loss adjustment of Rs 2500, so they took LTCG of 14000 , but allowed set off of Rs 11500 b/f Capital loss , since adding 2500 to my income
I filed rectification return , taking set off of rs 14000 ( as was available b/f LTC loss )
But Income tax dpt replied Under Section 154 of Income Tax Act 1961, rectification application can be filed only tocorrect mistakes apparent from records. In this case, fresh claims of BFLA is being made inthe rectification application, which is not a mistake apparent from records. Hence yourrectification request cannot be entertained.
How to explain Department that set off could be taken to extent of available capital gain.In fact they should have allowed in 1431A , full set off as they were aware of B/f capital loss

That is the drawback of computerization. The program is design that way. Either accept the solution as the LTCG is allowed to be set off for 8 tears, or write to your Jurisdictional ITO to allow you the available set off against the CY LTCG.
