No dear. CBDT by circular clarified that trading in derivative need not be considered as Speculative Business. But it should be treated as the nature suggest. One can inlcude gain/loss from  F&O transaction under the head of Capital Gain too. But nature of transaction and intention of assessee shold be seen to decide whether the transaction is business or Investment ?
