Do I need to do tax audit if I am filing my F & O details first time in ITR ??

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the need for a tax audit for individuals trading in Futures & Options (F&O). If your F&O turnover is below the threshold of Rs. 1 crore, a tax audit is generally not required, even if you're filing F&O details for the first time. The example provided shows a turnover of Rs. 30 lakh, which falls below this limit, meaning no mandatory audit is necessary based on turnover alone.
As per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, if your turnover from F&O trading exceeds Rs. 1 crore during the financial year, you are required to get your accounts audited by a chartered accountant.
In your case, since your F&O turnover is Rs. 30 lakh, which is below the threshold of Rs. 1 crore, you are not required to undergo a tax audit solely based on F&O turnover.
