Check CG sheet, there may be invalid content in it or use java utility. 

I also faced same problem. Then I went to CG schedule. Under B d 1 Deduction under Sec 54/54b/54EC/54F/54GB( Specify details in item D below) . Probably if one select 54F and enter amount as Zero the error may go. But I am not sure. Some Tax Expert come on and give solution

But hope it does not have any other ramifications. for you never know. That is the reason I am requesting Tax Experts to give solution

I also faced the same problem, so i downloaded the latest excel utility(version PR2) which resolved the issue. Please check whether you are using the latest version or not. If not, try to download & use the latest version.

There has been an update in ITR2- recent 11-July and this also has error in CG section for LTCG sub-section-4 for LTCG on listed Securities & MFs u/s 112A - the LTCG exemption of <Rs.1 Lakhis not considered - eg. a LTCG of Rs, 20000 is showing up as 20000 in Total income instead of 0 - this was okay in earlier version. 

Whom to be approached for correction / resolution. Thanks, Sanjay SImha
