Income in the form of RSUs will typically be listed on the taxpayer's W-2 in the “Other” category (Box 14). Taxpayers will simply translate the figure listed in Box 14 to their federal tax return and, if applicable, state tax return(s).
Since stock you receive through RSUs and stock grants is compensation, you'll typically see it reported automatically on your W-2 and subject to income and payroll taxes. You may be able to have taxes withheld from the sales proceeds of the stock shares instead of your paycheck.
Selecting a relevant schedule for reporting capital gains in ITR is very important. The long-term capital gains from equity-oriented mutual funds need to be reported in 'Schedule 112A'. If you have short-term capital gains, that needs to be reported in Schedule CG.
Double taxation on RSUs occurs because they are taxed at two different times: At Vesting: When RSUs vest, they are considered ordinary income, and their value is included in the employee's wages. This is reported on the employee's W-2 form, and the employer withholds federal, state, and sometimes local taxes.
If the RSUs fall into the first or second option, you'll receive a Form 1099-B reporting the total sales proceeds for the number of shares sold. (You may receive a 1099-B for option 3 if you sold any of the shares during the current tax year.)
Step 1: Go to the e-filing portal > File ITR > Select assessment year (AY 2024-25) > Select ITR form (ITR-3 for trading income). Note, if you have just capital gains on sale of equity shares and mutual funds, you need to select ITR-2. Step 2: Select the reason for filing the ITR and proceed.
You are likely to make either a capital gain or capital loss when you dispose of your shares. You must report the total current year capital gains, net capital losses carried forward to later income years and the net capital gain in the tax return for the income year you dispose of the shares.
If you have any capital gains transactions in shares, you will need a summary or profit / loss statement of capital gain transactions of shares or securities during a year, if any, for computation of capital gain. You will need your bank passbook, Fixed Deposit Receipts (FDRs) to calculate amount of interest income.
If you have income from capital gains from equity shares, mutual funds, or house property, you need to show it in the income tax return. Taxpayers with capital gains income must select ITR-2 while filing an income tax return for AY2024-25.
