Dear Sir/ Madam,
Mr. A, a senior citizen, trades in the stock market and the F&O market, generating LTCG, STCG, and F&O profit and loss. He lost Rs. 20 lakhs in stock market-related online scam. He filed FIR, etc.
How can we treat this scam loss? Can it be set off against F&O profits?
Please guide.

No sir. It was related to buy sell of shares, ipo shares. Not related to f&o trades.

So, you can claim it against your capital gains & not from F&O market trade.

Thank you, sir.
How can it be claimed against capital gain? I mean, how to show in itr?

Same as the in Schedule 'capital gain'. The amount invested minus amount realized/about to be realized would be capital loss.

Sir, they just shared fake details on WhatsApp. No actual transactions were carried out nor the purchase cost-sale amounts provided, no documents... it happened on WhatsApp... now those messages are also not available.. so difficult to show as any purchase or sale amount...

Without any evidence you cannot claim any gain/loss. Better to get proof; or forget it forever.
