26 June 2011 Share Trading has 3 gray areas and the income earned is to be divided in 4 Sectors
1) Frequest trading - without taking delivery of the scripts
2) Frequest trading - taking delivery of the scripts
3) Trading on fortnightly basis
4) Trading after 1 (One) year.

A) In case of situation No. 1 the income earned is to be treated as speculation income and is to be taxed under Income from Other heads which do not require Tax Audit.

B) In case of situation No. 2 the income earned is to be treated as income from Business and is to be taxed under Income from Business and Profession. Section 44AB is for business income and hence it requires Tax Audit.

C)In case of situation No. 3 the income earned is to be treated as short term capital gains and is to be taxed under Income from Capital Gains which do not require Tax Audit.

D)In case of situation No. 4 the income earned is to be treated as Long term capital gains and is to be taxed under Income from Capital Gains which do not require Tax Audit.
