However, in the cases of Loss by theft or any other casualty, such period shall be extended to 3 years instead of 2 years.
Carryforward Procedure
The business Net operating Losses can be carried forward for 20 years for setoff from any future year profits of the assessee.

Carry forward and carry back are mutually exclusive to each other. Which means only one of them shall be allowed for a year, either carry forward or carry back. A person can not claim carry forward and carry back simultaneously.
