Quick Summary
An employee failed to file their AY 2019-20 income tax return and is now facing a £10,000 late filing penalty. The employee retired in May 2019. If their income for that year exceeded the basic exemption limit of £250,000, filing the return is mandatory, even with the penalty. The penalty amount suggests their income was likely over £500,000, and they can claim credit for any deducted TDS.

Pls furnish full information.
AY 2019-20 IT Returns was not filed. when we are trying to file the return now they are show 10000 as late penalty.
is it necessary to file the return with penalty now?
the employee has been already retired in may 2019.
If the income of person exceeds basic exemption limit i.e. ₹250000 it is mandatory to file income tax return. So in your employee's case I assume that his income exceeds ₹250000 on the basis of your information about ₹10000 late fee, he is required to file ITR.
Yes, required to file A.Y 2019-20 return..
As you mentioned that Penalty of 10,000 shown..it means your Income is more than 5,00,000 in that Year..and TDS also deducted from Salary, you can take credit of TDS.
