Prepare a consolidated STCG excel statement of showing your share tradings during the Financial year where the shares were held less than one year.
Assemble all STCG buy line items in upper table.
Assemble all STCG sell line items in lower table.
Sum both the table. Net STCG will be available for you to report in Schedule CG.
Remember that Short Term Capital Gains can be offset with only Short Term Capital Loss of that year or previous 7 years.
You maybe able to Carry Forward STCL ahead.
