Let me try this one;
Share profit (not intraday)then it will be classified as STCG or LTCG.
F&O Profit & Commodity Profit: It will be classified as speculative income
Now considering your question:
Now in your case the person carrying on the business of share trading then the profit from such business is classified as business income.
Profit form F&O & Commodity market classifies as income from speculative market hence speculative business income. Now speculative business loss can not be set-off against other (non speculative business income). It can be only set-off against speculative business income only. You can carried forward the speculative loss to 4 yrs & can set-off against speculative profit in future years.

Yes, F&O & derivative tradings in commodity are non-speculative business & loss of one can be set off with gain of other.
