How to File ITR-2 Online with Wage Income, Capital Gains for FY22

Filing income tax returns (ITRs) is both easy and complicated. Easy because the forms are online and partially pre-filled and complicated because the number of mandatory declarations has increased over the years. The ITR forms a taxpayer must use will depend on their residency status and total income from various sources during a fiscal year (FA). Salaried individuals use Form ITR-1 or ITR-2 to file their income tax return. The ITR-1 form is also called the Sahaj (meaning simple) form. ITR 2 is slightly complex as it requires more disclosures and details. Here are some things to keep in mind when filing Form ITR-2.
