One of my colleague has not filed return for FY2017-18 till now and last date of 31st March 19 has already passed. Though their was no tax payable in this case, and GTI exceeds 5 lacs. Pls suggest if we should file return for FY 2017-18 now or not. Is it possible to file now as per the act?

You have missed the dead line to file Belated return u/s 139(4) which was due on 31-03-2019. Now, the only option is to wait till notice u/s 142(1) is issued asking you to file the ITR. Do not worry; you will get all eligible deductions, as held by various Courts in such situation. However, you may be liable for penalty for non-filing of ITR by due date u/s 139(1). Good Luck.
