see the criteria for penalty is

upto 15 days = Rs.500/-

16 to 30 days=Rs.1000/-

More than 30 days = Rs.1000+ Rs. 100 per day beyond 30 days

and total amount of penalty would be maximum Rs.20,000/- THIS IS FOR OVERALL RETURN.

You may pay the penalty amount in the code mentioned near by taxable service provided code.

In the return there is separate column for penalty.
