Quick Summary
This discussion addresses common validation errors encountered when filing ITR 2, particularly the 'Type of Account' error in bank details. The advice suggests re-selecting the account type from the dropdown menu and ensuring all bank accounts are correctly updated. It also highlights other frequent validation issues, including missing period splits for capital gains, incorrect brought forward loss application, incomplete foreign asset schedules, and exceeding the 80D premium limit, advising users to meticulously review and correct all highlighted fields before submission.

re validate again, under bank account details and select type of account again

Upload the error. 

Bank validation must not be a problem

@ Narendra Pandey

You have to click on the Type Of Account, a drop down selection will come for selecting Savings Account, Current Account etc. You have to select one of those.

 

Same error I also got which I corrected by editing bank account (inside three dots right side). The 'Account type' option is there. Pls. note,  if you have added more than one bank A/C, correct all of them. select 'Account Type' by drop down. Then this error will definitely go.

ITR-2 validation errors for AY 2026-27 - most common causes:

  1. SCHEDULE CG PERIOD SPLIT MISSING: Capital gains must be split into two separate rows: pre-July 23, 2024 (LTCG at 10%, Rs 1 lakh exemption) and post-July 23, 2024 (LTCG at 12.5%, Rs 1.25 lakh exemption). If all gains are lumped into one period, validation fails.
  2. BFLA SCHEDULE MISMATCH: Brought Forward Losses must be correctly applied in the BFLA schedule. Losses from the pre-July 23 period cannot offset gains from the post-July 23 period and vice versa. The utility checks this now.
  3. FOREIGN ASSET SCHEDULE: If you hold any foreign assets (NRE FD, stocks abroad, overseas property), Schedule FA must be completed. An incorrect tick or blank schedule with FA income declared elsewhere causes validation error.
  4. 80D PREMIUM LIMIT: Health insurance premium in 80D must not exceed actual premium paid. The utility cross-checks with AIS data.

To fix: Go to each schedule showing red validation error, review every highlighted field, correct, and re-validate. Do not proceed to submit until the utility shows green validation passed.
