Just for you Ethan Hunt. Consider I have an account XYZ with a certain broker. I enter into an agreement with the broker that he shall share with me a certain % of the brokerage generated by my trading in XYZ account. So in this case I shall trade for generating brokerage and not for profit. Normally if you generate profit in capital markets you have to pay capital gains tax (30% short term and 10% long term). In this case however I have to pay just 10% tax (TDS) on my income. Besides I am assured of money wether my trades go in profit/loss as I shall trade only for generating turnover(brokerage). Since I shall be aiming for breakeven I can close out trades early and put in multiple trades in a session. I hope this makes it amply clear.
scenario 1. I gain in the mkt., and off course get the brokerage refund, I have to pay tax acc. to my tax slab in both the transactions.
scenario 2. I loose in the mkt. but I gain in the brokerage refund...
my speculative loss does not get adjusted with my profit (brokerage), I would still have to pay 10% tds and furthar applicable tax (as per my slab)..
