Section 73

This query is : Resolved 

07 July 2014 pls explain sec 73 with explanation in briefly

09 July 2014 Section 73 of the Income-tax Act prohibits set-off of losses of speculation business except against profits and gains of another speculation business. The Explanation to section 73 extends the meaning of speculation business for the purposes of such set-off, by deeming any part of the business of a company which consists in the purchase and sale of shares of other companies to be a speculation business.
There are however two exceptions to this deeming fiction — one is for a company whose gross total income consists mainly of income which is chargeable under the heads ‘Interest on Securities’, ‘Income from House Property’, ‘Capital Gains’ and ‘Income from Other Sources’ and the second is for a company the principal business of which is the business of banking or the granting of loans and advances.
