25 July 2009
I am full time salaried employee. I have traded in Futures & Options only for 5 months (September to January 2008) and have incurred a loss of 62K in F&O and loss of 12K in Short term investment in Equities for full year.
I have clubbed both the losses 74K as Capital gain loss and filed in ITR2 form under Capital gains.
Since i am a full time salaried person, all my trading has been carried out by my broker on behalf of me, can i consider my F&O trading as Investment and declare the losses under Short term Capital loss.
IF i should have filed ITR4, now what is the way to set right these mistake...
