Hi, I am filing individual ITR-2 return 139(4) delayed.

I am forced to choose old tax regime due to delayed filing I suppose.

Then under VIA, when I try to add 80C deduction amount, it shows warning "Deduction u/s 80C is more than Deduction details provided by the employer. Please re-verify."

I can still enter amount say 1,50,000/-, it takes the input.

However later it automatically makes "Amount eligible for deduction = 0"

Has anybody come across this issue. I have tried this on 2 returns, various times and same issue.

Kindly help. Thanks in advance.

Quick Summary

Users are encountering an issue on the ITR-2 e-filing portal where the system incorrectly flags 80C deductions as exceeding employer-provided details, ultimately setting the eligible amount to zero. While some users found success by repeatedly attempting to enter the deduction, others suggest preparing the return online. It's also noted that the new tax regime (115BAC) may not be available for belated filings, though an official announcement is pending.
