STT PAID ON SHORT TERM CAPITAL GAIN WHETHER ALLOWABLE EXPENDITURE OR NOT FOR F.Y 2008-09? BECAUSE THE AMENDMENT SAYS THAT STT BE ALLOWABLE U/S 36 IF INCOME IS INCLUDED UNDER PROFIT AND GAINS FROM BUSINESS AND PROFESSION.

The Ammendment says that if an asessee carries the Business dealing in shares then it is allowable u/s 36. It doesnt explains that it is not allowable for short term capital Gain hence an asessee can claim STT as allowance while computing short term capital gain.
