How To Download Upstox P&L Statement And Upload For ITR Filing Online: A Step-By-Step Guide

Capital gain is one of the major forms of income for investors and traders. Capital gains results from the difference between the selling price and purchase price of an asset. This income can be categorized as Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) and Short-Term Capital Gains (STCG), based on the holding period of one’s investments. Upstox allows its customers to generate and download consolidated reports, also known as Profit and Loss (P&L) or capital gains statements, which comprises all transaction details of financial securities and their gains or losses. While you have the option of entering the details of capital gains manually, it can be quite hectic while filing ITR without consolidated capital gains statement.
