23 June 2013 Dear Expert,

I have already got my form 16, working in a MNC, in previous year 2012-13, I have incurred a loss of 60000, in intraday and less than 1 year scrips.
Pls suggest whether it can be claimed while filling returns so that my taxable income gets reduced by this amount.

Regards,

23 June 2013 Intraday means 'with a day'. Then you said scrips are one year old.

i) If it is intraday trading, with out taking delivery, follow the observation of Ramesh Ji.

ii) If the scrips are delivery based, since you said holding for 1 year, the loss is 'normal business loss' which can't be set off against salary income as per section 71(2A) of the Income tax Act,1961.
