Dear experts please reply

Your answer is inherent in the definitions of 'Transaction Value,' 'Consideration' 'Aggregate Value' and scope of 'threshold exemption limit' and definition and scope of 'supply'. Pl. go through all the above in CGST Act and then post your query again.

My view

Both will be clubbed to arrive at threshold exemption limit.

Futures would be covered under definition of securities  under SCRA. Would not be part of aggregate turnover
