The ITAT held that under section 70(2), short-term capital loss paid with STT can be set off against short-term capital gains not subject to STT, without further classification. Referencing prior judicial precedents, the tribunal found the Assessing Officer erroneously added short-term capital gains already computed by the assessee. The tribunal directed the AO to correctly calculate the assessee's income and levy tax accordingly, allowing the assessee's appeal grounds 1-4 and confirming the setoff of capital losses across different STT scenarios.
