Regarding Late Fee U/s234F


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
If you've filed your tax return late and owe a Rs. 8000 balance liability, including a Rs. 10000 late fee under section 234F, you need to pay this amount correctly. The consensus is to pay this balance under the 'Others' or 'Fees' head on your challan. This is because it's considered a penalty, not basic income tax.

17 March 2020 Suppose a person having more than Rs.5 lakh total income pay excess tax of Rs.2000/- and fails to file Return and now in March he will file return with a late payment fee of Rs.10000/- u/s234F. Now my Quest is in ITR e-filing portal it shows balance liability of Rs.8000/- (after adjusting Rs.2000/- excess tax paid). Now Rs.8000/- which head pay??? wether basic tax or others? please tell me how to prepare challan for Rs.8000/- under what head Rs.8000/- late payment fee to be shown?

17 March 2020 Pay the tax under "Others/Fees" head.

18 March 2020 You have to pay it In other fee even if you pay it in tax column same will be acceptable.

18 March 2020 Pay the Late Fee u/s 234F in "OTHERS" column. You can also see the instruction for the late fee payment in Challan...

25 May 2020 You have to use others option as it is a penalty and not income tax.
