The question is not clear whether he is regularly squaring off the transactions daily or he is engaged in commodity derivatives. . From the reading of the query it seems you don't know about basics of income-tax and expenses allowable under the Act. . Better you consult an Income Tax Expert personally.

Dear Friend, If Individual as refer by you is continiously engaged in Speculative Business or he is engeged in speculative business and his source of Income is speculative business then his expenses regarding that business as well as personal expenses will be deducted from his buniness. But loss will be set off only against profit of his Speculative Business only. Thanks
