Form 35 is for filing appeal not applicable here. Firstly, the permission of the Commissioner of Income Tax has to be obtained as to whether the time barred return can be filed to AO or not. Thereafter, if the CIT grants permission for filing time barred return then only the said return can be filed to the AO/on line.

Prepare an Application (no prescribed Form) , explaining reasons for the delay, and praying for its condonation.
