ITR for F&O and Intraday Traders
Futures, options, intraday equity, commodity and currency traders
F&O and intraday income is business income and needs ITR-3. We compute turnover the way the ICAI guidance note prescribes, decide whether presumptive 44AD applies, set off and carry forward losses for 8 years, and flag audit if required. Audit-tier work is delivered by empanelled CAs.

FAQ about itr for f&o and intraday traders
Is tax audit compulsory for F&O losses?
Not automatically. Audit under 44AB is required if turnover exceeds ₹10 crore (₹1 crore if cash transactions exceed 5%), or if you declare profit below 6% of turnover under 44AD after having opted in earlier. We assess your case before filing.
Can I carry forward F&O losses?
Yes, for 8 assessment years against business income, provided the return is filed by the due date. Belated returns lose this right.
What is the last date to file ITR for AY 2026-27?
For individuals not requiring audit, 31 July 2026. Audit cases have until 31 October 2026. A belated or revised return can be filed until 31 December 2026 with a late fee under section 234F of ₹5,000 (₹1,000 if total income is up to ₹5 lakh).
What documents do I need for ITR filing?
PAN, Aadhaar, Form 16 (salaried), Form 26AS and AIS, bank interest certificates, capital gains statements from brokers or mutual fund RTAs, rent receipts if claiming HRA, and proofs for 80C, 80D and home loan interest if you use the old regime.
Can I file ITR without Form 16?
Yes. Your salary slips, bank credits and AIS together give the same information. Your expert reconciles these to prepare the return.
Which ITR form applies to me?
ITR-1 for salary plus one house property and interest up to ₹50 lakh income. ITR-2 if you have capital gains, more than one property, or are an NRI. ITR-3 for business or F&O income. ITR-4 for presumptive income under 44AD or 44ADA. The plan finder above recommends the right one.
