07 January 2014 Dear Suren,

As per Sec. 139(1) Every person whose income exceeds maximum amount which is not chargeable to tax has to file return.

Due Date for filing Return:
If Tax Audit or Audit under Any other act is applicable then Due Date is 30th September of relevant assessment year.

In all other cases Due Date is 31st July of relevant assessment year.

Further for partnership firm even single rupee income will be chargeable to tax.

So only in case of loss it would be permissible if you dont file return. However such loss will not be allowed to carried forward to subsequent year.

Regards,
Chirag M. Haraniya
