04 December 2007 the income earned from physical delivery of shares i.e. Rs. 1,00,000 will come under the head "Capital Gains"
And if the loss is from intra-day (same day) transactions it will come under the head "business and profession" as speculative loss and can be set-off only from speculative incomes.
But if the loss is from inter-day tansactions then it will come under the head "capital gain" as short-term/long-term capital loss and can be set-off against capital gain.

rate of LTCG is 20%(if indeaxtion benefit is not taken then 10% in case of shares) and if STT is provided then it will be totally exempt as per sec112 of the income tax act.
