24 September 2010 Dear Friends / Experts,

Please confirm whether the BUSINESS LOSS can be set off against OTHER SOURCE OF INCOME i.e. Interest Income from bank and post office.

While filling the Income Tax Return for an individual (Form ITR-4), I am facing the above situation.

Please confirm with any supporting for my understanding.

Thanks.

Current year "business loss" is permitted to set off against current year "income from other sources" as per section 71 of the Income tax Act,1961.
