of ITAT analyzed derivative trading transactions involving gold, focusing on the interpretation of speculative transactions under section 43(5). The tribunal held that hedging transactions by traders are excluded from speculative transaction definition, contrary to the AO's initial assessment. The court affirmed that genuine hedging transactions, including purchase hedges, are not speculative when they do not exceed total stock of merchandise. The tribunal rejected revenue's arguments, emphasizing that proviso (a) and (e) have distinct scopes. CIT(A)'s order deleting disallowance of derivative transaction losses was upheld, finding no infirmity in the interpretation. The decision effectively expanded the exclusionary clause to include traders' hedging transactions, providing clarity on the legal treatment of derivative trading.
