If the income of person after deducting deduction under chapter VIA is below maximum taxable limit or Tax after deducting advance tax or TDS is nil or refundable. Then my question is Is that a person liable for penalty u/s 271F for late filling return of income?

Individual are required to file return only if the income is taxable So if your net income falls below taxfree limit you need not to file return so there is no Question of penalty.
