CBDT reported the ITR forms for the AY 2022-23, with respect to FY 2021-22. But the applicability of the ITR forms for the various assessee who comes in distinct slabs does not amend, attention has been on some of the amendment.
Foreign Assets Reporting Under Income Tax
The schedule for FA needs to report the foreign assets by the resident assessee. Beneath the income tax act, the duration towards which the income will be taxable is the former year, which is the ending fiscal year on March 31. The schedule FA needs the disclosure of the assets retained in the period of accounting, which is the duration to take for the closing of the accounts as well as the tax filings by the foreign jurisdiction where the assets are situated.
Schedule FA of the latest ITR forms needs reporting of the foreign assets retained during the calendar year ending on December 31, 2021. For example, an asset has been bought for the first time in January 2022, it need not be reported in the schedule FA of ITR for FY 2021-22 but in the Income-tax return for the FY 2022-23.

The latest ITR forms are given for the schedule to report the information of these taxes were postponed. The same reporting would need the assessee to calculate the tax on the prerequisite value of the ESOPs in the assessment year where the shares have been given on executions. It permits the IT officials to track in which year taxes were postponed who have not yet paid the tax.
Advantages of the Tax Credit on Foreign Retirement

The withdrawal from these funds was get taxed on the receipt grounds in the foreign country on the accrual basis in India which results in issues that an assessee faces in availing the foreign tax credit for the tax furnished in the foreign countries.
The latest Income tax return forms have changed the Schedule S (ie, details of Income from Salary) that permits the assessee to avail exemption from the tax under section 89A in the given way, its rules are yet to be reported.
