My one of the client is doing future option business in shares (derivatives) T.O.for the same is 5lcs (3lac on loss side and 2 lac on profit side)

as per books loss is one lac but if we take 8% it comes to 40k (below the exemption limit)

is 44ad is applicable in this case ?
can i take c/f of 1 lac loss ?

23 July 2012 No, Audit is not required, If income is lower than the Basic Exemption Limit i.e 40K < 2L(BEL)
No, You can not carry forward Loss arising from Shares trading ( Derivatives) in this case.

23 July 2012 Dear CA Rahul

Thanx for the reply

my question is whether 44AD is applicable to derivatives also ?

Is it compulsory to offer 8% as income and forget loss in case of derivate as well ?

23 July 2012 Derivatives is also covered under sec 44AD
under Sec 44AD, Deduction under chapter VI (Set off and carry forward of losses)is allowed except derivative loss.Yes it is compulsory to show minimum 8% as income under this section.
