03 April 2018 Thanks sir. But already a Non-filing Notice received from Principle Chief commissioner to file on or before 31/03/2018. Can we take it as so. Because for many of them the notice received on 28/03/2018 onward and we could not take for processing being already having cases in neck on that date.If can not be filed like these what will be remedy for that persons? And as per our source news there may be 5 ot 6 lacs notices sent from Principle chief Commissioner, All are dated from 13/03/2018 onward only and reached the assesses by 22/03/2018 onward only. So what the impact. We are verily suffered on this notice cases. So please clarify.

03 April 2018 Yes sir, there is not mentioned u/s 142(1). But in custom of practice can we take it u/s 142(1).But there is a fear also if any fine of Rs.5000 may be charges for that late return cases. This year it is very crucial to practice with GST confusions month on month and early closing of AY 2017-18 returns. We could not under stand What Govt think on the situation of CAs and Practitioners and we can accommodate all these situations in a stipulated time. How pity we are.
