dear CAs/Tax Experts ,

I've very few company shares in my equateplus accounts , even I have not redeemed it to my bank account , not sure why incometax asks me to revise my return ?

Is it really required to revise my return as the shares haven't been materilaised yet , not part of my income in 24-25 FY ? if Yes, then which ITR to file and in which section to declare the same ?

Thanks

Quick Summary
If you hold company shares, even if not yet redeemed, the Income Tax department may require you to declare them. You might need to revise your return if these were missed in the original filing. For unmaterialised gains, while generally not taxable until realized, reporting the transaction details is crucial. File the appropriate ITR form (likely ITR-2 or ITR-3) and declare shares under Schedule CG for capital gains or relevant income schedules, referencing Section 45 of the Income Tax Act.

The tax department may have noticed a mismatch because the shares (or their gains) should be reported even if they are not yet materialised or transferred to your bank. The department expects all income, including unrealised gains on investments, to be disclosed if they are taxable in the assessment year. 

Yes. You need to revise the return if the original filing missed declaring the income related to those shares. Unmaterialised gains are generally not taxable until realised, but you must report the transaction details and any applicable capital gains in the year of redemption or transfer. 

File the apppropriate ITR form applicable to your income status (usually ITR-2 or ITR -3 for individuals with capital gains). 

Declare the shares under Schedule CG (capital gains) if there is a capital gain on redemption, or under the relevant income schedule if the shares are considered income.

Refer to Section 45 of the Income Tax Act for capital gains on transfer of shares and ensure compliance with reporting requirements in the revised return.
