MY SON IS A NRE AND HE HAS FCNR IN USD AND JPY CURRENCY. I WANT TO REPORT THEM IN EXEMPT INCOME IN RESPECTIVE CURRENCY. HOW CAN I REPORT THEM IN ITR-1 IN USD AND JPY CURRENCY OR DO I CONVERT THEM IN INR AT THE CLOSING RATE AS ON 31ST MARCH 2024

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to report interest earned on FCNR deposits held by NRIs in foreign currencies like USD and JPY. It clarifies that ITR-1 is no longer suitable for NRIs, and ITR-2 must be used. As the ITR-2 form for AY2025-26 is not yet available, filers will need to wait for its release and updated reporting formats.

@ Sudhir Vardhan

An NRI can no longer use ITR-1 Form from last two or three years.

ITR-2 has to be used.

For AY2025-26, ITR-2 form is still not available, so you will need to wait.

Thanks for the response. 

However my question on FCNR deposit Interest still needs clarity.

@ Sudhir Vardhan

You have to wait for the ITR-2 form for AY25-26 to be released.

It is very difficult to tell in advance, by anyone, what new reporting format would come in the form.  

Regarding time available for filing ITR-2 for AY25-26, that also is  a huge mystery since only ITR-1 and ITR-4 filing date has been extended.
