I purchased about 38000 shares in multiple mutual funds. If I purchased them on some day of January of 2011, do I still need to report any capital gains or interest up until due date of 2011 for my taxes for the year 2010?

Taxes are paid in April for realized income during the previous calendar year (ending 12/31) typically.

And, you don't pay capital gains until you sell the stock (except in a very few unusual cases.) Similarly, interest income in an IRA is not taxable.

Again, what you pay on April 15th is for the previous calendar year.
