Welcome........My Pleasure...
You can very well claim interest expenses from short term capital gain. Not necessarily speculation income.
@ Kapadia Pravin - Which section says that you can claim Interest expense from STCG?
@ CA Rashmi Gandhi - How can sale of equity shares be considered speculation biz? It always involves delivery. Speculation income arises only when there is no delivery...

Finally what is the conclusion please. Everyone has expressed their different views.
I am really confused now.

Speculative transaction is a transaction of purchase or sale of a commodity including stocks and shares settled otherwise than by actual delivery or transfer of the commodity or scrip (Section 43(5) of the Income-tax Act)
Example: In the case of intra-day trading in shares, there is no actual delivery as the shares enter and exit from the trading account on the same date and it does not enter the DEMAT account at all. Intra-day trading is the trading of shares within the same day. Generally, the delivery is not taken in case of intra-day trading. Thus, they are called speculative transactions.
Firstly check the nature of your transaction then only decide what to do
