F&O loss setoff against OS income in ITR3 getting denied by CPC

Hi All,

Earlier i used to always file my ITR3 through to Quicko. This time I got my ITR3 field by a tax expert. There was loss in F&O in current year which is allowed to be setoff against all types of incomes except salary income. However, CPC is simply denying this setoff… I have no clue what could be the reason. My tax guy submitted rectification by changing the business code only, but no luck. setoff was not accepted again. is there any technical issue with my ITR form or is someone in IT department is simply denying it for no valid reason ? has anyone faced such issue ? Please help!

thanks!

Ask your tax expert to verify:

  • :x: No 44AD / 44ADA anywhere
  • :white_check_mark: F&O shown as Non-speculative business
  • :white_check_mark: Schedule BP item 35 (derivatives through recognized exchange) used
  • :white_check_mark: Loss flowing into Schedule CYLA
  • :white_check_mark: CYLA shows set-off against eligible income
  • :white_check_mark: CFL only if carry forward is needed

Is the return audited? If business income is less than 6% of turnover, the return needs to be audited by a licensed CA.

Hi, tax audit is not necessary irrespective of loss or profit if turnover is less than 10 cr , since all transactions are digital.
