    Step-by-Step: Filing ITR with HDFC Securities Reports

    Follow these steps for complete HDFC Securities ITR filing through the Income Tax e-Filing Portal.

    Step 1: Download All HDFC Securities Reports

    Get Tax P&L Statement, Capital Gains Report, and Contract Notes from the portal. Also download Form 26AS and AIS from the income tax portal for cross-verification.

    Step 2: Determine Your ITR Form

    Delivery trades only: ITR-2. Any F&O or intraday: ITR-3. If you also have business income: ITR-3. HDFC Bank salary plus trading also requires ITR-2 or ITR-3 based on trading type.

    Step 3: Fill Capital Gains (Schedule CG)

    Use your capital gains report. Enter STCG under Section 111A (20%). Enter LTCG under Section 112A with Rs. 1.25 lakh exemption. Include script-wise details if your form requires.

    Step 4: Fill Business Income (Schedule BP)

    For F&O and intraday, use Tax P&L figures. Enter turnover, net profit/loss, and deductible expenses. Speculative (intraday) and non-speculative (F&O) go in separate sections of Schedule BP.

    Step 5: Verify and Submit

    Cross-check totals with HDFC Securities reports. Verify TDS from Form 26AS. Pay any outstanding tax using challan. Submit and e-verify using Aadhaar OTP or net banking.

    Common Questions

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Have a look at the answers to the most asked questions.

    Does HDFC Securities provide ITR filing service?
    HDFC Securities provides tax reports but doesn't file ITR on your behalf. You must file through the income tax portal yourself or hire a professional. Some HDFC Bank branches offer tax filing assistance for premium customers.
    How do I link my HDFC Bank and HDFC Securities for tax purposes?
    They're already linked through your client ID. However, for ITR purposes, you report them separately. HDFC Bank provides Form 16 for salary and TDS certificates for interest. HDFC Securities provides trading reports. Combine both for complete filing.
    Why don't HDFC Securities figures match my AIS?
    AIS shows reported transactions and TDS amounts, not calculated profits. HDFC Securities reports show computed gains/losses. These serve different purposes. Ensure TDS figures match, but income calculations will naturally differ.
    Can I use HDFC Securities reports directly in ITR forms?
    Yes. HDFC Securities' Capital Gains Statement and Tax P&L reports align with ITR schedules. Transfer figures directly to corresponding sections. Always verify against AIS and Form 26AS before final submission.
    Is tax audit required for HDFC Securities F&O traders?
    Tax audit depends on turnover, not the broker. If F&O turnover exceeds Rs. 10 crore (with 95% digital) or Rs. 2 crore (otherwise), audit is mandatory. Below Rs. 2 crore with less than 6% profit margin may also trigger audit requirement.
