Set off of loss from futures & options trade

Hi,

I have incurred loss from Futures & Options Trade for FY 2017-18.

I am a salaried person.So I file only ITR-1

How can I get benefit of loss from F&O business as mentioned above.

Loss amount includes brokerage charges paid, STT, Turnover charges.

Can anyone suggest which will be the best course of action to take set-off or benefit of the loss I have incurred from F&O trade.

Depending upon your aggregate income of the year, you may be required to audit your F&O trading business accounts.

The loss cannot be adjusted against salary income, but from IFOS head, if any.

The remaining loss can be carried forward for next 8 years, which can be adjusted against gains from such business income.
