Entering Short-term capital loss from equity for carry forward in ITR-2

Viewed 2153

Dear Pankaj, In FY 2013-14, I suffered STCL from equity shares on which STT is paid. Now, In ITR-2, Section- A2ia of Schedule CG does not allow negative values (minimum is zero). My question is: where can I enter this loss, so that the adjustment (with STCG or LTCG) could be done in future years? (I just couldn't find a place in any other schedule, where the loss values could be entered!). Thanks in advance, for help with this small technical issue.

Thank you very much, Pankaj. It is very helpful.

You have enter selling price in 2-ia in sheet CG and purchase price under 2-ib-i. This would now show a negative value in 2-ie.

This carry forward short term loss now would be visible in CFL sheet under xi row as 2014-15 (Current year losses).

Thank you very much, Pankaj. Your answer is very helpful.
