if assessee has sustained loss u/h "income from other sources" and filed belated return, then can this loss (assuming could not be set off in the current year against any other head) be carried forward to the next year?? The query arises since section 80 says that loss incurred u/s 72 / 73(2) / 74(1)&(3) / 74A returned shall be filed within due date u/s 139(1. I think it will be c/f... is my view correct??

Unutilised loss under the head ' income from other sources' is not allowed to Carry forward IRRESPECTIVE OF THE DATE OF FILING of the income tax return.

71 is not the concerned section. No section in the act to set off the referred loss other than section 74A. Hence can't be c/fd for set off.
