So, let’s have a look on what are some important amendments in ITR 2 and who are eligible to file the same.

First of all ITR 2 is the biggest and exhaustive return as far as Individual and HUF is concerned where Individual and HUF is not earning income from business and ITR 2 is also the first and basic return for non resident individual to file in India.

Let’s first see who are eligible to file ITR 2 Form:

This Return Form is to be used by an individual or a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) who is not eligible to file Form ITR‐1 (Sahaj) and who is not having any income under the head “Profits or gains of business or profession”

This Return Form should not be used by an individual whose total income for the Assessment Year 2021‐22 includes Income under the head “Profits or Gains of Business or Profession”.

Below are the major amendments in ITR 2:

Option to avail benefit u/s 115BAC is provided in ITRs: For assessee opting under 115BAC are not eligible for certain deductions and allowances as mentioned below :

In Schedule CG (capital gain), the allowable difference between full value of consideration u/s. 50 C and value of property as per stamp authority has been increased from 1.05 times to 1.10 times

 

In schedule OS (Income from other sources):

(vi) In existing Sl. No. 10 “Information about accrual/receipt of income from Other Sources”
