One of my client has received notice U/s 148 for Non filing of return for AY 2015-16 for which I am now filing her return in reply to the notice.
My query is apart from filing the return and paying applicable tax and interest do I need to do any other compliance regarding this. Will there be any penalty for return not filed earlier.
