In case of intraday trading turnover for the purpose of section 44AB is profit + loss on trading and not the actual turnover of purchase & sale.
So if the same exceeds Rs. 60 lakhs then u are liable for audit u/s 44AB which will be done by a CA.

agreeed.... in intraday only the net result is considered and not the turnover.... Be sure that its in shares and not F&O... or else the calculation and sceanario is different... ANd than your income will be considered as business income also.... cant change in future than .

Dear Shivang How is that for the purpose of turnover in intraday & F & O the treatment is different? If some difference in there then kindly update me as for both intraday trading & F & O i think turnover is profit + loss.

AGREE WITH ADITYA JI. AS LITTLE AS I KNOW IT IS PROFIT + LOSS FROM BOTH TRADING IN SHARES AND ALSO F & O FOR THE PURPOSE OF TURNOVER. FURTHER INSIGHT ON THIS WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
For shares net of profit and loss account is calculated.( 100 profit and 50 loss than its 50 ) while for F&O it is total of favourable and unfavourable. i.e. if 100 profit and 50 loss than total 150 is considered..

SHIVANG JI AS FAR AS I KNOW EVEN FOR SHARES BOTH FAVORABLE AND UNFAVOURABLE ARE TAKEN TOGETHER I.E. 100 PROFIT +50 LOSS=150 FOR THE PURPOSE OF TURNOVER.

I agree to you both, but its heard only and nowhere written...
In assessments i have personally appeared for the assessee and have presented like this and the matter was solved.
In the case of intraday of share, as we know that net of profit/loss is considered...so when we calculate sciptwise the net profit /loss is calculated. and after setting off loss against the profit, the net will be considered.. that is net profit..(30 lacs profit and 20 lacs loss than it is 10 lacs profit and tax audit not applicable)...Normally Tax audit never comes in this situation....
FOR F&O, the total of profit and loss is considered and its added up... if profit is 30lacs and loss is 20 lacs than total 50 lacs is considered and tax audit is applicable.....

You can read the guidance note on tax audit where it states for the purpose of turover in speculative transactions as In the case of an assessee doing speculative transactions there can be both positive and negative differences arising by settlement of various such contracts during the year. Each transaction resulting into whether a positive or negative difference is an independent transaction. Further, amount paid on account of negative difference paid is not related to the amount received on account of positive difference. In such transactions though the contract notes are issued for full value of the purchased or sold asset the entries in the books of account are made only for the differences. Accordingly, the aggregate of both positive and negative differences is to be considered as the turnover of such transactions for determining the liability to audit vide section 44AB.

With regards to what u represented to the department somtimes some things are skipped by the A. O. also which is a common feature and in the end the interest of the client should be saved and i had also represented something to the department though was wrong but had still won on it.

I totally agree with you( Aditya).. i dont deny.. When you interprete it, its written that....
In such transactions though the contract notes are issued for full value of the purchased or sold asset the entries in the books of account are made only for the differences. Accordingly, the aggregate of both positive and negative differences is to be considered as the turnover of such transactions. SO we can say that its the net of profit and loss.. in short total profit from it. but this method is for shares.
Also sometimes AO may not be knowledgable. but I have presentted this to CIT(A). and they gave green signal to it.
And we can easily prove that its not a specualtion if given a chance... Even a intra-day transacitons can be considered as a short term capital gain and not specualtion profit/loss..... its very easy...
