Return form capital gains – Sale of depreciable assets .
Excerpt of query:

Sir,  my assessee has sold a depreciable asset which was held for more than 3 years, the resultant gain has to be assessed as LTCG as held in Smita Conducters  Ltd   v. Dy. CIT (2015) 152 ITD 417 (Mum.)(Trib.) and other judgements. However, it appears that the Form prescribed for filing the Income Tax Return does not permit the gain to be offered as a LTCG. If the gain is not shown as STCG, the Form will not validate and the return cannot be filed.   What is the remedy ? How to fil the return  form ?

Tax on Updated Return
Excerpt of query:

ITR could not be filed for Ay 2023-24 u/s 139(1) or (4) But self assessment tax was deposited fully in September 2023. Now assessee is filing  ITR-U . My queries is:- ITR utility not accepting challan deposited under self assessment tax in Schedule Part B-ATI saying that ‘challan should not be prior to 01.01.2024’.

My question is that in ITR-U will we get credit of this challan deposited u/s 140A, if we fill in schedule IT ? If demand is raised in processing, can the challans deposited u/s 140A in self assessment tax be used against such demand.

Query on 270AA of IT Act–Immunity from Imposition of Penalty
Excerpt of query:

Dear Experts, The Assessment Unit of the Income Tax Department made an assessment for the Assessment Year 2018-19 under section 147 read with section 144B on 14.02.2024 and a Demand of Rs 1,62,256 is raised.  The demand is raised without giving credit of the self assessment tax paid  on 07.04.2023 at the time of Filing Return of Income U/s 148 i.e. Rs. 60,917. Rectification petition for credit of Rs. 60,917 has been filed with the Jurisdictional Assessing Officer and is pending for processing. Balance Demand Rs. 1,01,339  (1,62,256 – 60,917) paid within 30 days of demand raised. Now, I am unable to file the application U/s 270AA (Form 68- Immunity from Imposition of Penalty). In Point 8 of Form 68— “Details of amounts paid”, since the date of amount paid as self assessment tax at the time of Filing Return of Income U/s 148 is before the date of service of order so an error message is displayed as “Error: Please enter valid date of deposit and it cannot be before date of service of order” What course of action should one take in such a case so that the Form 68 is successfully filed for grant of Immunity from Imposition of Penalty? One of the options I feel is to wait for the processing of rectification filed with the Jurisdictional Assessing Officer so that the demand gets reduced and the credit of Self Assessment Tax is given. What are the other options available? Please suggest.
