1. Using the java based ITR2 utility needs openjfx in addition to installing java etc - on Mint/Ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openjfx
2. PAN / TAN of deductor = PAN/TAN of employer
3. importing - pre-filling the form - takes longer than a minute on the Acer laptop, takes 10 seconds on the i7 machine.
4. The re-calculate button of the java utility is not the same as validation. On clicking Save, validation errors pop up. So, use 'Save' to validate, and 'Save draft' to save partially completed form.
5. For the first time, I needed to pay tax. Payment is via https://onlineservices.tin.egov-nsdl.com/etaxnew/tdsnontds.jsp , Challan 280 at the bottom of the page. Netbanking and Debit cards are accepted. The type of payment is Self Assessment Tax.
6. The Challan serial number and other details like date are available in the pdf made available to download from the SBI post-payment screen. These have to be entered in the ITR2 form under self assessment tax payment made, and then submitted.
5. The Aadhaar based verification of return did not work for me - said that service is not registered with UIDAI. The bank account based verification worked.
