Hi Altaf,
THis notice pertains to assessment under section 143(3)..do note there is a time limit for notice under this section,,if u r sayin tht it is for FY 2005-06 and if u have received it now then its time barred.
Furthemore, this notice means tht they r asking u to file ur IT return for FY 2005-06 or if u have already filed submit it again t them and meet them to satisfy there doubts regarding the income mentioned therein.
U can file the ITR now only if ur assessment starts and AO accepts it but he may levy penalty for not filing ROI on time u/s 139(1)

Actually I do not have the acknowlegdment copy of IT Returns due to which I feel I have missed out filing for that year.
Notice is issued on 26th Feb 2009 u/s 142 (1) for f.y. 2005-06, is it time barred.
Secondly, i heard that returns can be filed till for only last 2 years. So how can I file the return for Fy 2005-06 if i haver not filed before.

1. Go to income tax site enter your pan number and confirm whether you have filed return or not
2. Please read section 142(1) as follows
Issue of notice to the assessee [Sec. 142(1)]
For the purpose of making assessment, the Assessing Officer may serve a notice on any person -
• who has submitted a return u/s 139 or u/s 115WD; or
• in whose case the time allowed u/s 139(1) for furnishing the return has expired.
Such notice may relate to any of the following matter -
1. Notice to submit a return [Sec. 142(1)(i)]: If the assessee has not submitted a return of income within the time allowed u/s 139(1), the Assessing Officer may require him to submit a return in the prescribed form on or before the date specified in the notice.
2. Notice to produce accounts, documents etc. [Sec. 142(1)(ii)]:. However Assessing Officer shall not require the production of any accounts pertaining to a period more than 3 years prior to the previous year. i.e. in your case from 2002-03 to 2005-06.

NO you can file return for a previous year
