Income tax return pertains only to a particular year. Hence income is also to be shown only for a particular year.

You can treat the opening balances as the opening capital for current financial year incuding any other asset being cash or anything as was holding on the 01.04.2015.. Then only the income of current year to be taken as taxable..

Also you can't say that the differences in bank balances is the income... that may not be totally income. You should check the statement and other actuals before showing income in ITR.
