Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether individuals with business income from futures trading can opt for the new tax regime for their salary. It explains that while the new regime offers a simpler structure, it means foregoing deductions and exemptions available under the old regime. Importantly, business income from futures trading is taxed under a different section within the new regime, not on a presumptive basis.

Individual (& HUF) can opt for new tax regime only for once. So, check if you had opted out from new tax regime earlier.

Though the rule applies only till AY 2023-24. From next AY new tax regime will be as default tax regime.

Yes you can opt for new tax regime provided in the form submitted.In case of new tax regime an assesse cannot take benefit of deductions and exemption as opted in the old regime.
Thank you, if new tax regime is opted then would business income from futures trading be taxed on presumptive basis too?

Yes, no restriction in new tax regime.

Not on presumptive basis. It is under a different section.
