My wife, filed manual ITR as a salaried, in July 2018, for AY 2018-19 but forgot to claim TDS Refund. As income tax liability was nil she filed revised return vide e-filing on 31/03/2019 and claimed TDS Refund. But Income Tax Department deducted penalty of RS. 1,000/- vide section 234F from TDS Refund while processing the same and sent 143 (1) accordingly. Is it correct? Thanking you in advance with anticipation.

Yes it's correct the penalty is for late filing of return in online. Your e filed return is the original one not revised return. Your manual filing is not considered in E filing.
