Quick Summary

This discussion addresses how to set off a non-speculative loss of Rs 2,80,000 from F&O trading against other income sources. Expert advice clarifies that non-speculative losses can be offset against speculative profits, short-term share profits, and capital gains from property. However, losses cannot be adjusted against salary income. The discussion also touches upon audit requirements for F&O trading, noting it's compulsory if turnover exceeds Rs 1 crore, but also potentially applicable under Section 44AD even with lower turnover if losses are significant.

Oh sorry.

non speculative losses can be adjusted against speculative profit -2110, short term profit on shares and balance against capital gain on sale of property.

Note -You cannot adjust any losses other than loss from house property against salaries .So you need to pay tax on salaries and balance income arrived after set off.
