• Best option to save tax for a full time trader in stock market

Hi

I want to be a full time trader in the stock market with the initial capital fund of Rs. 50 lacs. 

I am planning to employ couple of people as analytics with a dedicated office setup. 

What is the best option for me to save tax on the profits made from trading. Can I open an LLC or a Pvt. Ltd company or is a better option available?

It is advisable to do business in personal capacity. Have a current account. Take a Gumastadhara certificate and have business in personal capacity

Dear Sir,

I think private limited company should be the best option from income tax point of view because the maximum tax rate is low in case of private limited companies

Please feel free to call/revert in case of any doubts

Thanks and Regards

Sir please tell us whether you are taking a sub brokership of any company so as to treat it as a business income. Or else it will be Capital gains in case of equity. In case of F & O it will be treated as Business Income. You can open a LLP or Private limited . But to treat equity as business income you need to take permission or Subbroer or Broker of BSE/NSE

Yes thats why only its not advisable to go for private company. There will be many other restrictions of SEBI if you operate and do business as Pvt. company

Hello Sir,

I assume you are talking about an LLP and PVT LTD. It is any time preferable to opt for an LLP as it involves less compliance which also means less cost plus also delivers ease of doing business.
