1.The last date to file ITR for 07-08 was 31/03/09 . So its time barred now .
You can definitely file ur return now voluntarily , there no issue with that .
If u cannot file your return after the last date of filing of return 271F would not be there in the Income Tax Act .:)
2. Its not necessary that 271F will be levied . First there has to be a tax due for 271F to be levied . Secondly try and save yourself u/s 273B if at all you get a show cause for 271F. In any case , penalty need not be paid wth the return .
3. Yes it can be submitted .

Juzer ,
No provision in Income Tax says that Income tax return cannot be filed after the limitation period . The procedure that has been explained by you is for condonation of delay for refunds in returns which are time barred .
So when a person feels the need to file a return , obviously there is a tax due or refund due . I think in both these cases returns can be filed .
Condonation of delay is for filing of returns with refunds claim .
the above instructions were issued prior to 271F i guess.

Dear Rajeev Sir,
You are correct, its only case where the assessee is eligible to claim refund, I am not aware the procedure for filing time bared return in other case. Even AO refuse to entertain such case. In case of tax payable the ITO is not taking ROI but you can say letter enclosing ITRs and other info. We cant term it as ROI.
Please clarify this.
Thanks for your advice.

Juzer ,
First of all, it depends on the urgency of the issue, whether its really very important for you or for your client to file the return.
Assuming its important lets analyze the provisions of 139(4):-
Any person who has not furnished a return within the time allowed to him under sub-section (1), or within the time allowed under a notice issued under sub-section (1) of section 142, may furnish the return for any previous year at any time before the expiry of one year from the end of the relevant assessment year or" before the completion of the assessment", whichever is earlier
A rider is put by the words "before the assessment is made"
Now its really a stretch to imagine that the words "before the assessment is made " will increase the time limit to file a return forever but it really would not be a stretch to imagine that the return can be filed till probably the time limit to issue a notice u/s 148 (for assessment )/153A is allowed . Here the words "before assessment is made" would be deemed to be "before assessment could be made under provisions of IT"
The above explanation, if seems logical to you , read further :-
In one of the case i handled , the client had some huge income which was to be assessed to tax but return was not filed and it was very important to file return The problem was how do i file a return barred by time?
I produced some fresh facts before the CIT , requested him to issue a notice for assessment u/s 148 . then filed the return under the covering letter of the notice.
Since explanation 2 of 148 provides this rider:-
Explanation 2.For the purposes of this section, the following shall also be deemed to be cases where income chargeable to tax has escaped assessment, namely:
(a) where no return of income has been furnished by the assessee although his total income or the total income of any other person in respect of which he is assessable under this Act during the previous year exceeded the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax ;
Other formal procedure is to request the AO/CIT to relax the time limit because of a reasonable cause .
other than the mentioned above , i dont think any instructions have been issued by the board for filing u/s 139(4)
IT SHOULD BE HOWEVER NOTED that it should be used only in extraordinary situations under the guidance of some good professional or the conclusions can be horrible .
PS:- i solved that case with huge difficulty but my purpose was solved :)
