2) Rs. 17800/- only for both
please share your views on it
thanks and regards
If the assessee is liable to file both the statements 24Q as well as 26Q then the penalty will have to be paid for each statement separately. However, if only one statement needs to be filed then penalty for only one statement has to be paid.
It must be noted that at least one statement should be filed for the concerned quarter even if it is a Nil statement and if both are Nil statements then one is suffice.
Sec 234E is not in the nature of penalty but late fees and hance will have to be paid before filing the return. it is Rs. 200 per day but does not exceed the amount of tax for the relateed period.
