Error in filing st 3 for q1

This query is : Resolved 

29 April 2013 We have uploaded ST 3 duly filled in ACES before the due date for Q1 i.e April-June 2012. But there was an error in xml and the return status was rejected. We did not notice this in ACES till yesterday and thought it was filed and accepted as such. We noticed it only yesterday when we had to file return for Q2 of 2012-13. The error in xml is very minor. only a small technicality.

Now, we have corrected this error and filed the return again. But since the previous one was rejected, does this mean we have filed this return late and penalty has to be paid? The penalty will be the max i.e 20k since the due date was long back.

Is there any solution to avoid penalty since it was a genuine mistake of procedure and no violation of the law on our part?

29 April 2013 re file agains. when notice serve to you. reply that you have filed timly but return was rejected. which is beond assessee controle. you will get benefit of doubt.
