Not able upload ITR2 ,LTCG Sec 54f deduction no CGAS account

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses an ITR2 upload error encountered when claiming a Section 54F deduction for Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG). The user spent the entire sale proceeds on a new house before filing and does not have a Capital Gains Accounts Scheme (CGAS) account. The upload fails with an error stating CGAS account details are missing or don't match bank details, despite the user leaving these fields empty and passing offline validation. Advice suggests focusing on the new house property details and exemption claim within the return, rather than entering CGAS information.

06 September 2025 Hi ,

I have LTCG and claimed 54f deduction , as I have spent entire sale proceeds before filing return , I do not have a CGAS account and have not deposited any amount under CGAS account , so I left these details empty under Schedule CG Section D , offline validation check were fine but upload level check failed with below error

'cgas account details is not added in or not matching with bank details '

Pls suggest how to file return in case of 54f deduction and amount is already spent on house and no CGAS
account

Thanks

06 September 2025 Actually it is asking for the details in the new house property and its exemption claim.
Do not add any details of CGAS account.
In the last tab fill the details of the amount claim as exemption; again..... It is important. You might have missed that.
