My Ltcg u/s 112A rs. 73044 for ay 25-26 my Stcg u/s 111A rs. 7966 for ay 25-26
Previous year loss u/s 111A rs. 353000
Problem is CFL schedule showing setoff of losses for Rs.7966 and BFLA schedule showing loss setoff for Rs. 81010(7966+73044) .
Technically Rs.73044 is gain under sec 112A which is exempt upto rs .125000

Because of that itr 2 showing 2 errors as following.
1.In Schedule BFLA, Sl. no 2 (iiia + iiib + iv + v + vi + viia + viib + viii + ix) is not equal to Sl. no 4(x) + 5(x) of CFL.

2.In Schedule BFLA, Sl. No. 2 (xii) is not equal to the sum of amount mentioned at Sl. No. x (Col. 3 to 6) of CFL.

ITR filing is being filed online. Is it technical glitch or something else ?

I am an Indian resident. I recently won an online hackathon from a US based company. The challenge was to build an AI based software project using the company's AI offerings. The top 3 projects of hackathon were awarded prize money based on innovation, completeness, usability and efficiency of the project.

The US based company is asking me to fill W-8BEN form which has a tax treaty benefit section, not filling it would lead US company to withhold 30% tax by default. Which Article of India-US tax treaty is applicable here so that tax treaty benefit can be availed leading to minimum/no tax withholding by the US company?

Article 15- Independent Personal/Professional Services (includes software development services)

Article 23 (Para 1 & 3)- Other Income

The next consideration is- what would be the domestic tax treatment of the amount in India?
Possible relevant sections to explore to ensure compliance: Section 2(24), Section 115BB, Section 115BBJ.

Section 2(24) states that "card game and other game of any sort" includes any game show, an entertainment programme on television or electronic mode, in which people compete to win prizes or any other similar game.

This includes skill based shows like Indian Idol and Dance India Dance. KBC is also clearly a game show and included in this. But a hackathon isn't an entertainment programme, a game show or a game.

Section 115BB also relates to winnings from lotteries, crossword puzzles, races including horse races, card games and other games of any sort or gambling or betting of any form or nature whatsoever.
Section 115BBJ specifically relates to and overrides 115BB for "online games”, defining them as games that are offered on the internet and are accessible by a user through a computer resource, and includes games of skill or chance or both.

This is widely construed to be encompassing games such as rummy, poker and fantasy sports etc.

Indian tax law leaves the interpretation of a game to common sense and doesn't formally define it. Hackathon isn't a game but an innovation challenge with a software deliverable/demo. It is an intellectual/technical competition. There is no wagering, gambling, or speculative element. The result is based on skill, coding, innovation, and judged by a panel, not algorithms or randomness.

What would be the right tax treatment/classification of this income for W-8BEN form's tax treaty section and domestic (Indian) filing?
For India, would this be added to total income and taxed at slab rates or special sections?

I had filed the Income Tax Return for the financial year 2022–23 (AY 2023–24) under the AOP status, as the trust is not registered under Section 12A of the Income Tax Act .
At the time of filing, due to a technical issue on the Income Tax portal, the return could not be uploaded unless the option “Whether the trust has business income” was marked as “Yes”, even though the trust does not have any business income . Since the taxable income of all its trustees is below basic exemption limit return has been filed as AOP at normal rate ignoring the warning trust with business income should go for AOP MMR .How ever we received demand notice calculating tax at AOP MMR rate.
We now wish to know whether we can file an Updated Return (u/s 139(8A)) to correct the business income option to “No”, and whether doing so will have any impact on the tax liability or lead to any reassessment or additional compliance.
