Belated Income tax return for last 2 year

Hello Everyone, Can anyone please tell me can we file belated returns as last verified return is showing for AY 2018-19 but return has been filled till AY 2019-20 but ITR is not summitted as per income tax site. So, what to do for AY 2019-20 & can return filling for AY 2020-21 & AY 2021-22 is possible with NIL tax or what to do in this situation.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the challenges of filing belated income tax returns for Assessment Years 2019-20, 2020-21, and 2021-22. It explores the possibility of filing late returns, especially when the last verified return is from AY 2018-19. Options discussed include seeking condonation of delay from the appropriate officer and utilising the ITR-U facility for AY 2020-21 and AY 2021-22 if there was a tax liability or refund claim.

Take approval through condonation of delay from appropriate officer and do the e filing if possible.

Else file it through manual mode at ITO

I have check the site for condonation but there is no option showing to apply for return filling only option is showing for return verification. 

Itr U

No, ITR filing is not possible now for any of the above-mentioned AYs. 

If there has been any tax liability then you could have filed ITR U for AY 2020-21 and AY 2021-22. The same was recently announced by the government. 

Further, if you have any refund to be claimed then you can file the return after condonation of a delay from dept. 

@ Abhishek,

You need to visit the ITO and get a approval for condonation of delay. It will be enabled
If you have taxable income you can file ITR U for both the year.
If filing was not done then one can't use ITR U
Available for non filers also.
