ITR2-Getting validation error saying quarterly breakup of lottery income not matching

Hi All,

1) I have downloaded the latest ITR offline utility 2 days back and after filing my divident income and then giving quarterly divident split such that totals match, I am getting an error saying "In Schedule OS, Sl No 10, the quarterly income by way of winning from lotteries, corssword etc, referred to in Section 2(24) (ix)  (i + ii + iii+ iv + v) is not equal to Sl No 2a winning from lotteries, crossword puzzle etc chargeable 115BBDTAA 115BB respectively".  I have zero income from lottery and I entered  0 in quarterly breakup and also in Sl no 2a but still getting the error. Tried entering 1 each in quarterly break and then putting 5 in section 2a but still get the mismatch error. Can anyone pls help.

2) I have already paid the self assessment (including the 234A interest for july and sep that the system showed) and now tax liability is showing as nill. So if I am not able to submit the ITR2 by today (Sep 30), I wont be charged any 234A interest for Oct right as I have already cleared all the outstanding on Sep 28. Pls confirm.

I am a senior citizen and a bit tensed about not able to file my ITR2. Pls reply asap

Thx a lot,
Ashok Kumar Singhal

Quick Summary
A user is encountering a validation error in the ITR2 offline utility regarding the quarterly breakup of lottery income not matching the total declared. Despite having zero lottery income and entering '0' in all relevant fields, the error persists. The user has tried various combinations to resolve it, including entering '1' for quarterly amounts and '5' for the total, without success. They are also seeking clarification on interest charges if they cannot file by the deadline due to this issue. Another user reported the same problem, but it was later resolved, though the solution wasn't shared.

From the General Schedule, remove the bank account and add the same account again and provide bank account/IFSC code, if you have another bank account you can add multiple account. 

Tried deleting bank account and added again. Still no luck.
