      This one has already crossed your line by more than a great margin, Sumit ji. May I know your situation/stand now.I feel eclerx to be more prominent among the present/current lot.

    Please guide me how to report profit (capital gain) in ITR-2 on sale of shares under Buyback to save Income Tax liability, Thanks in advance.

      Please download the Scedule named Exempt Income before you start filing your ITR2 and declare your total gain from buyback. Simple as that.

        OK, I will report capital gain from Buyback under “Any other income”? As there is no separate clause for reporting “income from Buyback”.

          Buyback gain is exempt from Income tax u/s 10(34 A) read with section 115Q A. As rightly stated by you,it is not figuring in the list of Exempt Income in Schedule E I . Yes, it may be shown as “Any other income.”

        Under “Exempt Income Schedule” buyback income under Section 10(34A) is not listed. Shall we show this income in other under “Exempt Income Schedule”? Please guide

    Bought in 2 accounts today at 2165 and 2 accounts at 2270 on Friday.
    79 shares in each

    Let’s see what happens , attractive size and premium so I’m expecting 20% AR minimum and more if less participants here.

      AR will be around 38%, same as last trouble buybacks.
      Buy maximum as per retail category and hold. It has been consistently rising since 2019. Regularly rewarding shareholders

      Exited today all at 2500.
      Thanks Bhagvan , one of the best buyback of my life 🙏

      Jis din election declair hota hai usi din elections ke final result ko puchana kaha tak sahi hai ?
      Please wait.

        Girish Ji, Analogy Zabardast hai…..
        🙂 🙂

          Very happy to see your return to the zone 😊. Hope to see you more often.Missing Rohit ji also since long.

            Hello Gopi,

            How you doing? Sorry for not being active over the last 4-6 months due to some business issues on my end. I am getting back to track slowly and will be active after couple of months.

              Thank you for your kindness in enquiring about me, Rohit ji.Last fifteen months have been excellent for me in terms of gains from the market. Hope this is the case with all of us including you. Have been missing you really.Happy to know that you will be around.Wish you good luck

        Enjoying the humour in the comment😀. I think AR will have a real relationship with the outcome of the election.Larger the Winners majority, greater will be the AR.
