Dear Sir We had filed TDS statements for Q1 of FY 2013-14 on 1st November 2013 & now we have received intimation U/s 200A to pay late filing fees u/s 234E. I want to know whether this penalty can be waived or we can file appeal against this intimation ???
However, in cases of undue financial hardship, you can file application under section 119 for reduction or waiver of interest payable. The power to reduce the interest penalty is given to CCIT vide notification No. F. No. 400/234/95-IT (B) dated 23-5-1996.
