Hi

Zerodha’s cust support informed me that Discrepancy values has been disabled till rollout of their new back office.

However, a new issue has cropped in, where prices of existing holdings (which were purchased in Zerodha) are not properly showing.

Even now I am facing the same issue. Despite updating the correct information on the portal (not just once, did it twice), somehow the system is wrongly populating the data.

Suppose I transferred shares that I purchased in 2022 - can I enter that past date or it has to be from current FY year only ?  
I want to enter correct past date to reflect long term capital gains or loss but I read somewhere that it has to be from current FY year only so pls clarify.

You can enter the original purchase date. There is no such restriction. The buy average price will be updated within a day and will be calculated based on the First In First Out (FIFO) method as per the trade/purchase date.
