Now the company earns speculation income by way of commodity difference amt to Rs.56000/- and interest on loan of Rs. 15000/-.
Which is the correct option: 1.Take the deduction of all expenses from speculation income,then loss from speculation loss will be (66000-56000)10000/- which cannot be st off against int. on loan. 2.Show the loss from business as Rs.66000/- which could be set off with int on loan and Rs.56000 as speculation income.
