My query is regarding the accounting treatment of future shares. the assessee is karta in huf and carring on purchase and sale of share and showing it as a business income and claiming rebate u/s 88E. I m intra day sale purchase in NSE/BSE as speculation. and taking other sale and purchase in trading account( NSE/BSE). I want to know how to deal with the purchae and sale of future shares. what treatment should be followed. whether i should show all the sale and purchase in trading account? or should i only take the net profit or loss. the assessee is not having any closing stock of future share. what treatment should be done for the intial margins created which are reversed at the sale of future shares.
