Keeping Record in Tally is very good and appropriate because by this proper gain/loss shall be determined by you at the end of transaction. STT, Brokerage, Service Tax and Transaction Charges will become the part of purchase/sale value.

In F&O the accounting of Margin Money Deposit and gain/loss on particular contract will be done. This can be done easily by obtaining the summary of transaction statement from broker.

One can treat shares income in income tax by taking various assumptions. like if any one is doing regular trading then he can show that a business gain/loss.
