13 May 2010 based on the available bills, invoices, bank statements make the accounts and tally with the returns filed, it will take hardly a week or two, dont worry, take adjournment for the case and be prepared for that.

14 May 2010 Section 271A cleary specifies that - failure to maintain books of account as required by section 44AA - maximum penalty is Rs.25000/-,
furhter penalty is not leviable if assessee proves that there was reasonable cause for failure.
