Intraday trading on shares


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to calculate turnover for intraday trading. Turnover is determined by summing the absolute amounts of profit and loss across all trades within a day, rather than just the net profit or loss. The calculation can be done on a trade-by-trade basis or aggregated for the entire day's trading activity.

24 April 2025 Turnover for Intraday Trading = Absolute amounts of Profit/Losses

Absolute turnover means the sum total of positive and negative differences (the loss amount will not be deducted but added to the profit amount). Trading Turnover can be calculated either as a scrip-wise or a trade-wise method.

Example of trading turnover
Ektha buys 100 shares of ITC at ₹75. She sells them at the end of the day at ₹80. On the next day, she buys 200 shares of Paytm at ₹500, which she sells at ₹460 at the end of the day.

Profit from 1st Trade = (80-75) * 100 = ₹ 500
Loss from 2nd Trade = (460-500) * 200 = ₹ -8,000
Absolute Turnover = 500+8,000 = ₹ 8,500
