ITR2 weird behaviour

ITR Filing 261 views 5 replies

3 hours ago, my AY2020-21 ITR2 excel was filled completely. I pressed Calculate Tax and I got some tax amount to be paid. I immediately paid that tax amount (Self assessment) and entered the BSR details on Schedule IT.

I saved the ITR2 excel within 2 mins and pressed Calculate tax. It showed me Net Tax Payable as zero. I did not generate XML then.

Three hours later I opened my ITR2 excel again, no changes to any income head for sure. Now ITR2 shows some very small amount of tax still to be paid.

How can this happen? What changed in 3 hours? In the ITR2 excel I changed nothing.

Thank you, this trick worked. I had to switch off the internet WiFi on laptop during entering details and till the Calculate of income tax. The old ITR2 excel is now deleted. The small tax payment due is not appearing now.

 

What happens when the WiFi internet is kept ON and we enter and Compute Tax?

How does internet connection changes the Tax Payable amount?

I have tried this out for myself numerous times.
It worked.
