28 February 2020 (1) If Penalty U/s 234E not paid now, you will have to revise the return also after paying the penalty. So better to pay the penalty first and then file the return.
(2) The challan paid for penalty has to be shown in challan sheet provided in the TDS return. Nothing else to be done for this.
(3) As per the provisions of law, Penalty is leviable in this case. But it depends on the department, whether to levy or not.
(4) It is suggested to file the return asap.
