Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether an updated return (Section 139(8A)) can be filed for AY 2021-22 if there was no initial filing and there is no tax liability. While some suggest it's possible if income is below the basic exemption limit, others indicate that penalties for late filing might apply, preventing a 'nil' updated return. Clarification is sought on the conditions and any new features related to this section.
If you want to file nil return ITR U won't allow for filing because it has to levy penalty under section 40 for the late filing based on the period of delay.
