Dividend stripping sec 94(7)

Hello Naina,

U/s 94(7), dividend stripping the compltet provion states that :

any person buys or acquires any securities or unit within a period of three months prior to the record date;

such person sells or transfers—

(i) such "securities" within a period of three months after such date; or

(ii) such "unit" within a period of nine months after such date;]

(c) the "dividend" or income on such securities or unit received or receivable by such person is exempt,

then, the loss, if any, arising to him on account of such purchase and sale of securities or unit, to the extent such loss does not exceed the amount of dividend or income received or receivable on such securities or unit, shall be ignored for the purposes of computing his income chargeable to tax.]

Hence you are right that if such situation happens then the amount of loss to be carried forward shall be Rs.4,90,000 ignoring the dividend of Rs. 10,000
