Can I show share trading income as business income?e

Depends upon period of holding and the pattern adopted in preceding years.

If its Intraday trading or having very short period of holding........... you can treat it as business (speculative) income.

Thanks for the reply. It is not intra day trading. The shares are bought and sold within a maximum of 3 months. Trading is done less frequently. To show the commission paid to my friend as expense, can I make cash payment?

If these are not intra-day trading, then delivery based transactions are taxed under capital gains depending upon the period of holding. As I understand, these are not business incomes and deduction of expense on account of commission cannot be claimed.
