12 May 2009 The answer to your question is as following –
Any order passed by an Income tax authority u/s 116 is an appealable order. Assessing officer is an authority within that meaning, so you can file and appeal before CIT(A).
The time limit for filing the appeal before CITA(A) is 30 days from the end the date of on which the order of the AO is received. So now in your case the appeal is time barred. However you can file an appeal before CIT(A) along with an application for condonation of delay in filing of an appeal. The reason shown for condonation of delay should eb reasonable and acceptable to CIT(A).
The fees payable is Maximum rs 1000. It is 250 and 500 also based upon the income of the assessee.
You can appoint any chartered accountant and or a tax consultant for appearing before CITA(A).
Unless you have filed an appeal you can not apply for stay of penalty proceedings. File an appeal before CIT(A) with condonation of delay application and now and also file stay application with AO stay and also mention the merit of your case.
In case of further clarification, please let me know.
