ITR4 AY 20-21, adding 234f fee Rs.10,000 on 1st Jan ?

Filing ITR4 on 1st Jan 2021. Last date was extended to 10 Jan 2021, for small business with no audit (44AD). Still after Calculate Tax, system adding   234f fee (late filing fee) Rs.10,000. I downloaded ITR4  on 31 Dec 2020 after last date was extended to 10 Jan 2021. What should I do? Will the form be fixed ?

Quick Summary
Taxpayers filing ITR4 for AY 20-21 are encountering an unexpected Rs. 10,000 late filing fee (234f), even when filing before the extended deadline. The issue appears to be with the tax software, which is incorrectly applying the penalty. The Income Tax e-filing helpdesk has acknowledged the problem and advised waiting for a software update. It's recommended to delay filing by a couple of days until the ITR forms are fixed to avoid manual intervention or using a more complex form like ITR3.

Manually remove that penalty

NOT ABLE TO REMOVE. 

Same problem while filling it online too
Just proceed for filing ...no pblm
I just called e-filing helpdesk of income tax and he told me that wait for to evening as they update the software asper new notifications

Thankyou - that is some relief. Better to file after couple of days, when ITR forms are  fixed. Else have to file with the lengthy ITR3 form.
