AGREED WITH EXPERTS.
BELATED RETURN U/S 139(4) CAN BE FILED UPTO END OF ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF RELEVANT ASSESSMENT YEAR I.E YOU CAN FILE IT UPTO 31/03/2012.
BUT IF YOU FILE IT UPTO 31/03/2011 THEN NO PENALTY,
IF YOU FILE IT AFTER 31/03/2011 BEFORE 31/03/2012 THEN AO CAN IMPOSE PENALTY OF RS. 5000/-

Dear Shivang,
Please check sec 271F.
271F. If a person who is required to furnish a return of his income, as required under sub-section (1) of section 139 or by the provisos to that sub-section, fails to furnish such return before the end of the relevant assessment year, the Assessing Officer may direct that such person shall pay, by way of penalty, a sum of five thousand rupees.

Thanks Sanjay sir,
But the question is of Nil return and so he is not mandatory liable to file return under section 139(1). So 271F is not applicable...
The assessee,in this case,being an individual, is not required to file return under section 139(1) mandatorily ( considering NIL TAX)
Since 139(1) is not applicable to the assessee, penalty cannot be imposed under section 271F.
Pls correct me if i am wrong...

Though 139(1) is not applicable if you file return after the stipulated date the AO can impose penalty of Rs 5000/-.

Is there any penalty for non-filing of return under this scheme?
Yes. In case the return of income is not furnished, although required on the basis of above indicators, the assessee could be fined Rs.5000.
Q 6 is as above, which also explain that if assessee is required to file return u/s 139, and not file till the end of assessment year, then penalty can be imposed, otherwise if income before claiming deduction u/s 80C is below taxable limit, penalty can not be imposed by the AO.
