Representation On Relaxing The Application Of Section 234F Of Income Tax Act And Extension Of Due Date For Filing Income Tax Returns Of Individuals And Small Businesses
It is an old disease in India that regardless of repetitive updates, there are sure tax assessees who turn a deaf ear and neglect to meet the due date for Income Tax Return Filing. They are utilized to record late returns or neglect to document the return of income. This has happened on the grounds that, before the present arrangement of income tax, penalty on late filing of return was not compulsorily upheld by the Department. Thus, tax assessees used to take the provision of timely filing of return for granted. From the financial year 2018-19 onwards, another section has been presented, i.e. Section 234F of Income Tax Act-1961 for a penalty for late ITR filing.
Delay in filing income tax return is going to be painful now onwards. A new section 234F has been inserted into the income tax act which describes the late fees on account of filing belated returns.
