speculation loss can be set off only against profit from speculation business (sec 73)

Business loss can be set off against any income other then salary in current year. if loss is c/f it can be set off only agaist business income (sec 71 & 72)

In given case speculation loss b/f can be set off against speculation income of Rs 7,00,000 & business loss of Rs 31,00,000 can be set off against interest income of Rs 33,00,000. Hence net speculation income will be Rs 1,00,000 & other source income will be Rs 2,00,000
