Brokers and exchanges report trading data that shows in AIS. Not reporting F&O at all, even a loss, creates a mismatch and loses the chance to carry the loss forward.

Analysis

For AY 2026-27, you can revise to ITR-3 and report the F&O loss, but carry forward needs the original return filed by the due date. If the original was on time, a revised return can still carry the loss. For older years, an updated return cannot increase a loss. Reporting correctly avoids an e-campaign email or notice.

Close

  1. Check AIS for F&O and intraday entries
  2. Revise the return to ITR-3 if still within time
  3. Report turnover and loss correctly
  4. For older years, respond to any campaign with explanation
