  8. K. Rajaram says:

    I am a retired person getting interest on F.Ds. and made Long Term Capital Gains and Short Term Capital Gains by sale of shares (in demat) thro’ NSE. My doubts are –
    1. Which Form I should use for filing my return of income
    2. I have SB accounts with 5 banks and have closed 3 SB accounts during the financial year 2014-15. I have opened several accounts with banks since I would spread the risk of keeping FDs with different banks and also avail higher rate of interest paid by different bank from time to time. I find the column insufficient to fill the data. Can I use annexure for the purpose.
    3. My wife also has several accounts like me for the same purpose. While I have made my wife second applicant to all my accounts, my wife has made me second applicant for all her accounts. Shall I to should her SB account details also in my IT Return since I am the second applicant.

    If any one can help me with answers for all my above quieries, I shall remain thankful to him.
