    In my QUERY, in place of the words ” sold in FYE 31-03-2022 (AY 2023-24)”, -if not guessed on own and done, requires to be corrected and read “sold in FYE 31-03-2023 (AY 2023-24)”.

    In fact, the fact remains that for FYE 31-03-2022 (AY 2022-23) itself, in FORM 2, ‘similar changes’ had been made already; but is not materially any different from those as made in Form 2 for FYE 31-03-2023 (AY 2023-24). Have been trying but unable to find out whether in the ‘Instructions’ of CBDT for AY 2022-23 or AY 2023-24 there has been any guidance as to how to fill in the mentioned two columns of relevance!

    As regards the EXPERT’s learned answer-suggestion that “It is advisable to get the help of a tax consultant or Chartered Accountant with complete facts and figures.”, –

    > me for one thought- not incorrectly so, -that the FACTS and FIGURES given must be more than adequate for the expert to provide the solicited ANSWER; and
    -to clarify, it is only after trying to get help from a few CAs infield practice but in vain, that me sought the help of an in-house Advocate (@itatonline.org)!

    May be excused for the bother!

    ^ > POSER: “Be that as it may, oddly, the intriguing question for which the struggle to strive and find a righteous answer is this : Could not the loss have been avoided or mitigated had the government (Revenue) acted ON TIME, on one hand, and had Taxpayers been honest enough not to take an undue advantage of the lacuna in the law left to be plugged in until recently ?
