The late fee presently prescribed vide rule 7C of the Rules, is
(a) Rs 500 for delay upto 15 days;
(b) Rs 1000 for delay between 15 days and 30 days; and
(c) Rs 1000 plus Rs 100 per day beyond 30 days, till the filing of return, not exceeding Rs 2000/-
the panlty of 2000 was leviable on the defaulers of 30+190 = 220 days or over days of default
Now the figure 2000 is replaced with 20000, with a view that defaulters are more than 2 years and new provision covers upto 30+1900 days = total 1930
so the penalty of 20000 max is leviable on 30+1900 = 1930 days or mroe period of default
