Please help me out in understanding the taxability of income from trading in derivatives(options). For Eg: If i have earned income of Rs 10 Lakhs from trading in options, how would this be taxed? will it be taxed under Income from Business?
please also suggest the Tax Planning for this income.

My view is to offer the same as business income should there be regular and many transcations..
