No loss can be set off against income from winnings from lotteries, crossword puzzles, race including horse race, card game, and any other game of any sort or from gambling or betting of any form or nature.

income from crossword puzzles and lottery comes under casual income..
NO Loss can be set off against Casual Income......Similarly Casual loss can neither be set off nor carried forward...u/s 115BB...
