I am a software professional doing a job. I do share trading as investor. short term and long term both. If my short term turnover exceeds 1 crore i.e. If my sell side transactions for short term exceeds 1 crore is it mandatory that I need to undergo audit ? Without audit, if I mention in my return, sell side turnover , cost of improvement, shares bought price and profit and pay tax accordingly , will it be sufficient ?

As you are an investor Tax audit not applicable to you. Pay 15% tax on short term capital gain on sale of shares. Yes it is sufficient. What is the cost of improvement.
