Sir please see question no 6 of above link. I agree he is not required to file return but if filed after 31.03.2010 i think penalty u/s 271F can be levied. Sir please clarify this point with any citation. Regards
I have gone through the link especially under the caption If the assessee does not file.... My observation is, the matter has been dealt there in a vague manner. The section 271F itself is very clear meaning thereby that penalty attracts for a person who is required to furnish return u/s 139(1)and fails to furnish... In view of that,I am not changing my earlier observation. I don't have a case law to cite.
