Taxation for income from forex..

[din_chan]

Hi forex experts...

can anyone tell me, the taxation details for income from forex trading via online forex trading platforms? how should we mention the income on our IT returns? Will it be treated as short term capital gains? or as bussiness income?

Thanx in advance.

The form depends upon number of factors like your status as person and other sources of income you do have. Visit www.incometaxindia.gov.in to select the right form. Category of Income would be "Profits & Gains from Business or Profession".
