As per the new law, a penalty of Rs 5,000 will be levied if the return is filed after the due date but before December 31 of that year and Rs 10,000 post December 31. However, as relief to small taxpayers, if your income is not more than Rs 5 lakh, the maximum penalty levied will be Rs 1,000.

total income means income before any deduction under section 80C to 80J, and if this below 250000,no late fees will be payable

No... If Your "GROSS TOTAL INCOME" is less than BEL then the sec not levied to You...
The said income before all deduction...
