Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether losses from intraday share trading can be offset against income from intraday derivatives trading. The consensus is that this is not permissible. Losses from speculative income can only be set off against income from the same head, and share trading and derivative trading are considered different categories for tax purposes.

No. Not eligible..                

No you can't
Thank you Ma'am Rashmi and Mr. Dhirajlal for clarifying .
Welcome Dear
Speculative income set off is applicable against income earned against share trading but under same head.
Share trading and derivative trading are different
