Last year income tax return filling

The due date for Filing the ITR is 31st july of the relevant assesssment year. But for those assessees whose accounts are required to be audited the due date is 30th sep.

Even If assessee has not filed the return within due date he can file belated return u/s 139(4).The last date of filing belated Return is One year after the completion of relevant assessment year or before the best judgement assessment whichever is earlier i.e. for a.y 2011-12 last date is 31st mar 2013.

Their will not be any problem regarding refund if the return has been filed before the aforementioned date.

if the return of income is less than basic exemption limit then filed ROI  & get the refund otherwise it is better not to file ROI.

Hope it is not a case of tax audit.

Ilayaraja...,

U have used the word statutory time limit. For Individual, here u means time limit is 31 july  or 31 st march.

can a.y. 11-12's income tax return be filed if the income is below exemption limit and TDS is not excess i.e it is properly deducted.
