Can my wife file Income tax return for AY 2008 2009 and 2009 -2010 now. She has 1 lacs Rs. Income from business. for those years.
Is filing return now allowed? Will this attract penalty or not?

In case of filling return for Assessment year 08-09 it is not possible to file return now as it will be invalid.
But for A,Y,09-10 she can file return before 31st Mrch 2011. as per Sce 139 (4).

The income is below taxable limit for both the year, hence no need to file return for both the year.
