The manner and process of setting-off of losses and the subsequent carry forward of balance losses flow in the following manner:

INTER SOURCE ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment of loss from one source against income from another source within the same head of income within the same year.

INTER HEAD ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment of loss under one head against income from another head of income within the same year.

CARRY FORWARD OF LOSSES
The balance loss after the above two adjustments are carried forward to the subsequent assessment year.

However, all the above are subject to certain conditions which have been presented in a nutshell.
