hello! For AY12-13, I have net loss (ST CL under section 111A) in the equity shares category. I also have net positive (ST CG but not under 111A) because I sold some ESOP shares on NASDAQ within few months of vesting.
As I understand it the STCG NOT under 111A would normally be taxed at slab rate. So my question is, can I deduct the equity STCL (under 111A) from the ESOP STCG?
