This discussion addresses a salary earner's query about filing Income Tax Returns (ITR) with capital gains from stocks and mutual funds. The advice given is that ITR-2 is the appropriate form, even with a small, single intraday transaction. It's recommended to disclose all capital gains under the relevant section, and the user is assured that filing ITR-2 for these circumstances is unlikely to attract future queries from the IT department.
