18 September 2012 Sec 271F says that every person who is required to file a return u/s 139(1) will be penalized in case of non filing of return. As a firm is required to file a return u/s 139(1) in every cases (even in case of loses), therefore such penalty get imposed on it.

27 September 2012 As per law penalty should be imposed. But there is a provision that AO may waive such penalty. So it all depends upon the AO, Whether he imposes penalty or not.
