in my case ( before trying to save the json) I did check the summary and fortunaifir me, there was no mismatch fron the data entered by me.
When I could not save json, I trued to save as X M L using normal excel "save as" ( since there is no button for saving as X M L). I wanted to save to import it into next avatar of the utility.
But even "save as" did not allow saving as X M L.
Then I got fed up and abandoned the exercise.

@ Ranjan
Do you mean the last sheet titled "SUMMARY" showed correct figures in the "Amount" columns for you in more than 1 row?
@ Cs26kit
Thanks for making me recheck my summary sheet for json creation.
Indeed, CG and OS are missing totally, which are my income sources. Also missing TI_TTI which is absolotely necessary.
My IT, and TDS1, TDS2, TDS3 showing and the data is correct.
Now I realize the reason for json creation failure. Terrible coding by InFy team.
And there could be many other things not captured, not visible to us, but needed for acceptable json by the IT Portal.
@ Ranjan
Yes. I rechecked again too. No CG, OS, TI-TTI & was shocked to see what I previously ignored. Some schedules, despite being filled, show up among the "Empty" schedules. This is indeed a shoddy job that wastes users' time, leaving them second-guessing themselves whether the errors are due to their own fault.
The last line of your post above hits the core issue.
@ Cs26kit
I forgot to mention that I tried another experiment to check if that solves the json creation problem.
I added full Self Assessment tax calculated amount in the Schedule IT to get rid of any self assessment tax remaining to be paid and went through all the steps for json creation.
No success.
Every problem remained as it was earlier.
Finally closed this modified file, deleted it and got back one from my last backup.
Now keeping that file for data import whenever the properly working utility shows up.
Of course, I do not know whether data import will work or I will be forced to do donkey work again, filling up all data manually.

I found another issue in this newly released ITR2 excel utility . In Schedule CG – Capital Gains, Item B(1) under Item 1 Long Term Capital Gain From Sale of land or building or both, sub item biib cost of improvement, only 2 rows have been provided for inputting Toal Cost of improvement yearwise. There is no provision to add rows on need basis as is available against other items elsewhere in the return form. I have a case where improvement expenses of different amounts have been incurred 4 times in different years, during the period of holding of 14 years after 2001. Unable to claim this propertly because of absence of provision to add more rows here.

@ Sasidharan G
Just add all the 4 expenses and put the year as the last expenses' date for the improvement.
And you or your client should hold onto all the receipts of the 4 expenses for explanation, if ever required ( 7 years I think ).

Thanks to you and the many others who have posted their issues with ITR-2 Excel Utility for AY2025-26, and some resolutions for them. I too faced most of the issues like you all with my ITR-2 with pre-fill data imported, viz :
All the best to all of you (and me) for filing the IT Returns this year...

@ Krishnamurthy B.
Welcome to the team for taming the beast.
One query.
Is it only 32bit vs 64bit issue or does the Excel has to be the latest ( 2024 or 2025)?
If It is the last option then 98% or 99% filers are ruled out, including myself for filing using this utility. I cannot spend 1 lakh or more to get a new laptop with latest 64 bit Windows ( 11? which is claimed to be full of bugs) with 64bit Office ( 2025 ?).
It is extremely unbecoming for I-T Department to allow release of such an utility for a country like India.
And Infosys should be ashamed for creating such an utility. Hope Nandan and Salil are reading this thread.
Posting the other thread link which has some more tips on the bugs, just in case if helps https://www.caclubindia.com/forum/itr-2-foreign-asset-details-not-editable-in-excel-utility-525271.asp?offset=1
