1. Sub-Section (2) of Section 71, allows to set off your business loss against Capital Gains (both LTCG and LTCG). 2. Sub-Section (2A) of Section 71, restricts to set off your business loss against Salary Income. Derivative Segment loss is normal business loss. You can set off against Trading Gains (Speculative) as well as against capital gains.
