ITR-2 Filing (Old Regime)

I need to prepare and submit my individual income-tax return for the current assessment year under the old tax regime. My income is predominantly salary, supplemented by RSUs and ESOPs from my employer. I will be claiming exemptions for HRA, home-loan repayments, education-loan interest, and ELSS investments, so the computation must reflect each of these accurately.

Form ITR-2 is the appropriate form for my profile; there is no business or professional income involved. I already have my Form 16, payslips, and brokerage statements for the equity compensation and can share them immediately.

The job is complete when I receive:
• A reconciled tax-computation sheet showing gross income, deductions (HRA, home loan EMIs, education-loan EMIs, ELSS), and final tax liability/refund.
• The filled ITR-2 (JSON or XML) ready for upload on the e-filing portal.
• A brief summary explaining the treatment of RSUs/ESOPs and the exemptions applied, so I can answer any future queries from the department.

Experience with salary returns that include equity compensation is important, and an eye for detail is essential because I want to avoid any mismatch notices. I am ready to move forward as soon as the data review is complete and would like the filing wrapped up well before the deadline.
