In case of dealing in F&O segment, the negative and positive income from individual contracts is to be summed up. In case the total of the two figures exceeds Rs. 40 lacs, then there is a need for Tax Audit u/s 44AB. Pl note the gross value of transactions(Exposure) is irrelevant to decide whether tax audit is to be conducted or not.
