YES.
Loss under the head “Profits and gains of business or profession” can be carried forward only if the return of income/loss of the year in which loss is incurred is furnished on or before the due date of furnishing the return, as prescribed under section 139(1).
Such loss can be carried forward for eight years immediately succeeding the year in which the loss is incurred.
Above provisions are not applicable in case of unabsorbed depreciation
