Schedule fa in itr 2

Dear Sir

ITR 2A is applicable to only Assessees not having Income from PGBP and Capital Gain and don't hold foreign assets.

You need to file ITR 2 becouse you have foreign assets as you mentioned above.

ITR2 will be the correct form for Assessment Year 2015-16.

ITR2A is wrong for this year onwards. What may have happened is that IT department software engineers copied the the previous year's ITR2 form and created ITR2A by hiding some rows related to FA.

Sir

I have seen this in Schedule FA in the java utiluty of ITR-2

In case of an individual, not being an Indian citizen, who is in India on a business, employment or student visa, an asset acquired during any previous year in which he was non-resident is not mandatory to be reported in this schedule if no income is derived from that asset during the current previous year.
