Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies Section 234F fees for belated tax returns for Assessment Year 2019-20. If your income is below the taxable limit, you are not liable to pay any late fees, even when filing a belated return. However, if your income exceeds the basic exemption limit, late fees will apply, with the amount varying based on your total income.

No, If your Income is below exemption limit for AY 2019-20 and you file your belated return now (last date is 30th September, 2020) than you are not liable to pay any late Fees under sec 234F.

But if income is more than basic Exemption limit, than Late fee applicable.
But as per rules its listed that those below taxable limit files belated return have to pay rs 1000 , It applies to whom?
As per Section 234F
1. if Income below Exemption limit than late fee is ZERO
2. if income more than basic Exemption limit but total income less than 5,00,000 than late fee will be "1000"
3. if total income more than 5,00,000 than late fee will be 5000 / 10,000 as the case may be
