01 January 2010 Section 271B is reproduced below.
If any person fails to get his accounts audited in respect of any previous year or years relevant to an assessment year or furnish a report of such audit as required under section 44AB, the Assessing Officer may direct that such person shall pay, by way of penalty, a sum equal to one-half per cent of the total sales, turnover or gross receipts, as the case may be, in business, or of the gross receipts in profession, in such previous year or years or a sum of one hundred thousand rupees, whichever is less.
As per the section two conditions has to be satisfied simultaneously. 1) Assessee should get audit report before the specified date.2) Assessee should furnish the report before that date.
Here, first condition is satisfied but failed in second condition being belated filing of return. Hence ITO will initiate penalty proceedings under section 271B.
