Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an individual can file their AY21/22 Income Tax Return (ITR) under the new tax regime, even if their employer deducted tax based on the old regime for FY20-21. It explains that opting for the new regime means foregoing deductions and set-off benefits, including past losses. The advice is to choose the regime that results in a lower overall tax liability after considering personal circumstances.

If you file under new regime means under concessional rate of tax then no deduction and set off benefits will be applicable for return. You should file ITR under old regime

Deductions are understandable, but please explain set off. Capital gains? 

Past Losses of the sections that are not allowed under new regime, if any, can not be claimed.. You want to opt or not depends on your personal case.. go with what results in a lesser tax liability
