This discussion clarifies the penalties applicable when filing an updated return under Section 139(8A) for Assessment Year 2022-23. If filed by 31st March 2023, it's not possible. For filings between 1st April 2023 and 31st March 2024, a 25% penalty on the additional tax liability applies. If filed between 1st April 2024 and 31st March 2025, the penalty increases to 50% of the additional tax. Interest does not apply to the additional tax itself, only the penalty is calculated on this amount.

1. Not possible to file. 2. 25% on additional tax liability 3. 50% on additional tax liability. In addition to above, penalty u/s. 234(F), if return was not filed earlier.

No. Tax liability as per income tax act only. Deduct taxes already paid. That will be additional tax liability. Now penalty over it, be 25% or 50% extra.
