if GTI less than basic exemption limit no fees shall be payble
If your total income is below 5 lakhs then late fee of 1000/- under 234F is charged.

There are different views also that income is below taxable basic limit you don't have to pay fee under 234F.
It's confusing till CBDT clarifies it
The basic limit of year 2019-20 is 2.5L
you can file your return without any penalty. because when section 234F is levied thn you can not claim 87A rebate.
That's why you can file your return without any penalty.
but 234F does not specify that penalty won't be levied on income below 250000
