💡 Note: If your derivatives turnover exceeds ₹10 crore (or ₹2 crore for cash-based), you may need a tax audit. Consult your CA.Key terms: Futures Turnover is calculated as the sum of realised profits and realised losses from futures trading. Funding Interest applies to perpetual futures contracts, where traders either pay or receive funding fees depending on market conditions. Funding Interest Received is income; Funding Fees Paid are expenses. Gross vs Net Gains is the profit before and after deducting brokerage fees respectively.
Derivatives income may be treated as business income depending on the nature and frequency of your trading activity. Consult your CA for the correct tax treatment in your situation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Complete Tax Report replace Schedule VDA?
Does the Complete Tax Report replace Schedule VDA?
No. The Complete Tax Report provides full context and detail, while the Schedule VDA Report is formatted specifically for entry into the ITR filing portal. Your CA will typically use both. The Complete Tax Report is for understanding and verification; Schedule VDA is for the actual filing fields.
Why does my report show Rs. 0 income for some trades?
Why does my report show Rs. 0 income for some trades?
Loss trades show Rs. 0 income because under Section 115BBH, crypto losses cannot offset gains or other income. The trades are still recorded in the report for audit purposes, but the Income from VDA column shows Rs. 0 for any transaction where the sale value was lower than the cost of acquisition.
Can I regenerate the report after changing settings?
Can I regenerate the report after changing settings?
Yes. Once you purchase a plan for a financial year, you can regenerate reports unlimited times at no additional cost. Edit your transactions or change a setting, then regenerate.
What does 'Changed from Default' mean in the Tax Settings section?
What does 'Changed from Default' mean in the Tax Settings section?
It means one or more Tax Settings were modified from the default configuration. This is not an error. It simply informs your CA that custom settings were applied when generating the report.
Should I classify gains as Capital Gains or Business Income?
Should I classify gains as Capital Gains or Business Income?
Both are taxed at 30% under current Indian VDA rules. The difference is how it appears in your ITR: Capital Gains goes under Schedule VDA, while Business Income can be entered under ITR 3. This is a classification decision based on your trading activity and how you intend to file. Consult your CA before changing this setting.
