07 August 2013 One of my friend is actively involved in Intra day & F&O trading through a share broker and he incurred a loss of Approximately 4.00 lakhs in a financial year.

My questions with reference to above are as fallows

1. Applicability of sec 44AA
2. Applicability of sec 44AB
3. How to disclose in in ITR-4 (one of my colleague working in a CA firm advised to show the same under 44AD).
4. Is it mandatory to file IT return if involved in share trading.

correct me if I am wrong, Recently I viewed Tax Audit Guidance note issued by ICAI for knowing meaning of turnover for the purpose of maintaining books of accounts and applicability of Tax Audit, from that i concluded that turnover means cumulative of Profit/ loss from each individual transaction to considered.

Thanks in Advance.
