Some persons were exempt from tax and, therefore, not required to compute their income under the head “profits and gains of business or profession”.

In this context, dispute has arisen regarding the basis for allowing depreciation
THE Assessing Officer during the course of assessment proceedings observed that the assessee has claimed share trading loss of Rs.7,91,263/ -. From the various bills furnished by the assessee including the brokers notes, the Assessing Officer observed that the assessee has not taken physical delivery of shares purchased but only paid margin money. Since actual delivery of shares were not taken by the assessee the Assessing Officer treated the transactions as speculative transactions within the meaning of provisions of section 43(5) and treated the loss claimed by the assessee as speculative loss and allowed to be carried forward as per law.
