Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the penalty for filing Income Tax Returns (ITR) for the Assessment Year (AY) 2019-20. It addresses whether a penalty is levied if taxable income is below £2.50 Lakh. The consensus is that if your gross total income is below the exemption limit, there is no late fee under Section 234F. However, if your income exceeds the basic exemption limit but is less than £5,00,000, a penalty of £1,000 may apply. The filing deadline for AY 2019-20 was extended to 30th November 2020.

Yes of Rs.1000 under section 234F
If your Gross total Income (i.e Income before Claiming any Deduction u/s 80C to 80U) is less than Rs. 2.50 Lakh, than there is "NO LATE FEE/Penalty".
For F.Y 2018-19 last date is 30th September, 2020.

I believe the last date for filing tax return for AY 2019-20 is now extended to 30th Nov 2020.

Yes, it's extended to 30th November, 2020.

So Now, Due date to file Return for A.Y 2019-20 and A.Y 2020-21 both are 30th November, 2020

NO LATE FEES AT ALL........... .........

No, For A.Y 2019-20 Late fee u/s 234F applicable

FOR LESS THAN 2.50 LAC .............. ??????? NO...... IT DOESN'T.................. 

Yes, 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

RIGHT & THANK YOU....... SAGAR BHAI..............

You're most welcome........
