Users are encountering a verification error when e-filing ITR2, specifically related to claiming exemptions under Section 10(5) for LTA. While the offline utility validates the data successfully, uploading the JSON file results in an error message. This prevents filing, even after raising grievances with the IT department and trying the latest utility version. The issue seems to be with how the exemption is being restricted or categorised, with some suggesting it should strictly be for LTA under salary. Users are seeking solutions or confirmation if others are facing similar problems.
