29 March 2012 Dervatives and futures always non delivery. Therefore, it shall be treated as speculative income. But it will be comes under business head only sir

29 March 2012 dear Mr Shiva
in case of commodity one can take delivery th MCX or NCDEX
In case of share futures section 43(5) provide that it will be business income but not so in case of commodity futures and hence gains are treated as speculative gain
There is huge diff between business income and speculative income
