Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to report share trading activities on your Income Tax Return (ITR). For intraday trading, it's treated as business income, and you need to declare the total turnover (sum of profits and losses treated as positive). Short-term and long-term trades are generally considered capital gains. A tax audit is typically required only if your intraday trading turnover exceeds ₹1 crore.
Intraday is required to be shown as business income. Tax audit is required only in case if turnover is more than 1crore. Short term gain or loss required to be shown in capital gain head. You generate the report of intraday transactions and capital gain report from your Dmat account. I will advice you to file your return with CA, so that your return will be filed properly.
Ok than if i consider intraday trading as speculation gain from business and short/long term trading as capital gain than tax audit is not required if turnover not exceed above 1crore in intraday trading. am i right sir
