19 October 2013 There is no provision for waiver of penalty for late filing of return. The penalty is Rs.500 for the 15 days delay, Rs.1000 for the thirty days delay, thereafter Rs.100/- per day of day upto Rs.20,000/-.

Penalty for late filing may be waived in the case of ST-3 where there is no tax liability i.e NIL or below threshhold limit Rs.10lacs.
