while preparing ITR should we show detailed breakup of intraday trades, Or can we show total buy value and sale value of all shares for the tax period?
Due to intraday trades, the amount is in crores, is that a problem?

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to report intraday trades in your Income Tax Return (ITR). Generally, for intraday transactions, you should report them under 'Profits and Gains from Business or Profession' and can use the net profit or loss amount. Section 111A applies to capital gains on listed securities where Securities Transaction Tax (STT) has been paid, and the reporting requirements differ for securities bought before and after 31 January 2018.
For security purchased before 31 Jan 2018 you have to file security wise each txn! For security purchased after 31 01 2018 consolidated amount can be taken for filing!
If it is intra day then you have to show it under business or profession right?? then you can take net amount of profit or loss, no need to go with 111A for intra day transactions as per my understanding.
