14 May 2012 Case: A person aged 50 years has income from salary, bank interest, rent income from house property and Long term capital gain from shares which was reinvested in equity shares itself.
Every year TDS is done by his employer and the same is duly deposited with the government. Employer issues Form 16A
But the person has not filed even a single income tax return in his life.
What can be the consequences ??? and What if now he wants to file his first income tax return ?? What should he do ???
