HOW TO SAVE TAXES IN TRADING AS AN INDIVIDUAL?
A THREADđź§µ
In this thread I'll list down all the legal ways in which you can save taxes on the profits you earned from the stock market.
If you are trading with a good capital size, to lower taxes, you can always split your money in you family member's account. This greatly reduces your taxes.
This is the best part. You can claim any expenses which are related to your business.
It could be :
- Rent: Rent of your office. If you're working from your house you can partially claim the rent of the house too.
- Internet and electricity: You can claim deduction on internet and electricity bill.
- Interest on emi: You can also claim emi interest as business expenses.
- Business trip: Your hotel stay, flight tickets , food, etc can be deducted upto a certain extent.
If you have lost money in any particular year in trading, then you can easily carry forward that loss for the next 8 years.
So let's say if you lost 1 lakh in a year. And you make 5 lakhs profit next year. You'll only have to pay tax on 4 lakhs.
Fno comes under business income.
If you lost money in FNO in a particular year then you can offset it against your other business income which means you don't have to pay tax on other business income.
You other business, capital gains, rental income, salary, interest on fd , etc made 20 lakh profit.
Hence, you'll only have to pay tax on 10 lakhs(20-10) since you can offset the fno loss against other business income.
Even after all this still if you have fno income, you can easily invest in instruments like 5 year fd, Nsc, PPf and can offset taxes for upto 1.5 lakhs in sec 80c.
