Dear Asit,
It can fall under any of the heads, depending upon the nature of transaction
like simultaneous/frequent sale-purchase, shares purchased for dividend, intention of holding it, treatment in books of accounts, among others........
You may refer the case of Rohit Anand vs. CIT (Delhi HC) for your reference...
Best Regards,
CA Lovely Arora
