Issue while filing ITR2 AY2021-22 on 1st Aug: section 234F - Penalty for late filing being levied

566 views 8 replies

I am facing an Issue while filing ITR2 form AY2021-22 online on 1st Aug 2021 (today). A penalty of 5000/- INR for late filing (section 234F) is being levied, although the deadline for AY2021-22 is extended to 30th Sep 2021. Is anyone else facing this issue and is it this a bug in the software?

Yes this problem has been faced by lot. You should wait for some time then try again
Penalty will be payable

I am also facing the same problem even in the utility v. 1.0.5 released on 02-08-2021

I am also facing the same problem. Last few weeks the portal wasn't working and while submission I was getting a schema error. Now from 1st August system adds Rs. 5000 as penalty for delayed filing. Seems system is not considering the 2 month extension declared. Raised a query to support awaiting the response.

The issue got fixed today. The system has removed the penalty for delayed filing and I could complete my return filings. Thanks to all who responded to my query above.

Till now showing penalty of Rs. 5000/- showing in my Draft Version of Return, please suggests how to fix the issue?

@ Santosh Dandekar You may download version 1.06 released on 4 August and see whether it solves your issue.

Thank you Sir for your reply
