Online ITR2 filing cannot be done, you have to download the utility from https://www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in/downloads/offlineUtilities?lang=eng and fill it offline, generate X M L and upload it.

Thanks for the information. Since my income was there only for a month, it is less than the exemption under chapter VIA deductions (it is there in my Form 16) and hence I am getting an error in the utility saying that "Salary disclosed in income details is less than 90% of salary reported in Schedule TDS 1."

Can you advise what needs to be done here? Should I remove the chapter VIA deductions when preparing the return?

Thanks and Regards,

LB

No. Rather fill the salary income same as gross salary as shown in form 16 or as shown in TDS schedule (before deduction of any allowances)

If you are doing this for AY 18-19, and filing ITR2, and had 1 month salary income in India, show breakup of salary in Schedule SALARY. 

Basic salary in line 1, other taxable allowances in line 2, Rs 200 tax on employment on line 5 and that way you file.
