Current Year Loss Adjustment to Savings Account Interest

ITR 143 views 5 replies

Hi Everyone , i have a question about Current Year Loss Adjustment with the Income from Savings interest.

I have a loss from FNO trading of approx 5500 Rs and Income from Savings bank of approx 3500rs. I am filing ITR for FY 2022-2023 and through one of the online portal. Here they adjusted loss from FNO for current year with the savings bank interest.  So from 5500 loss , they adjusted 3500 income from savings interest and carry forwarded 2000rs.

My Question is when IT dept exempting income from savings account upto 10000 rs , adjusting as above is correct method ? Since interest from savings account is below 10000, should it not be completely exempted and entire 5500 rs should be carry forwarded as carry forward loss ?

If above method is correct , then how can tax payer completey utilize the 80TTA Exemption ? 

Please guide.

Are you filing IYT under NEW Tax Regime?

No Sir. I am filing it under Old tax Regime and never opted new regime anytime before.

In that case you are eligible to claim deduction u/s. 80TTA for Rs. 3,500/-

Yes, entire STCL, if not adjusted against any other income, would be carry forwarded.

But Should we consider exemption first  and then excess amount above Rs 10,000 should be adjusted ?

Since my savings interest is below  RS 10000 , entire Rs 10000 should be exempted right ?

Sorry to ask again , but this concept i could not get it clearly. Please guide.

First is set off of losses before chapter VIA exemptions.

So, your F&O loss will get set off with IFOS (sav acc Interest) first, before getting the deduction.
