Tax on income from f&o only

I m only doing intraday equity and options trading .I don’t get salary …My profit is 4.25 Lacs for this year which is less than 5 Lacs limit… Should I need to pay tax??

The limit is 2.5 lacs for not filing income tax return. Between 2.5 lacs to 5 lacs, the tax rate is 5% but the govt. offers a rebate of up to 12,500/- if the total taxable income stays below 5 lacs.

So, technically you may not have to pay tax but it is still advisable to file your return.

No Tax upto the income of 5,00,000
Income Tax filing is compulsory if your income is more than 2,50,000 or to carry forward any losses.
