    Hi Shabbir,

    I have seen many boarders booking profit (or losses) in days/months. What are the tax implications of such trading? I know 15% tax is charged on equity for short term gains, less than 1 year. But should we then not keep our post-tax returns in mind? In such cases, our post tax returns should be at least more than FD interest rates post tax, about 6.5%?

    Tax on FD is also there if you make more than certain amount which I am not sure off because my FD income is never above few hundreds.
