no cannot set off the long term capital loss where securities transaction tax as already been deducted if ur selling through any stock exchange.. if u want to set off the long term capital loss on securities u need to sell them to ur friends i e need to sell them out of stock exchange ull be allowed to setoff the loss from other long term capital gain...or carry forward the loss to next yr....

becus securities transaction tax will not be deducted as ur not dealing through stock exchange..so ull save STT as well as can set off the loss from other long term capital gain or carry forward the loss for further set off..

Income which is exempt from tax cannot be set-off in case of loss under the similar head, since the type of income is not taxable.
