You can File Belated Return for Assessment Year 2009-10 (Financial year 2008-09 ) till 31.03.2011 : No Penalty will be Levied.

For the Financial year 2009-10 you can still file the return...enough time..no worry.

If you have only Salary Income and Interest(other sources) [Filed using ITR-1] there is 101% Chance that your case will be processed without any queries. Even in other cases such queries are rarely asked. To avoid any problems please E-File your returns rather than physically filing it..

during the course of web design, u have paid internet fees, telephone, domain charges, hosting charges, and maybe some salary / electricity bills, u are eligible to deduct these as business expenses, ( in other words, adjust the the profit to non taxable limit by expenses) , file your return for finance year 2009-10 before 31-03-2011,

a fair calculation for 29 age

assume u earned 1 lacs per annum and spent 50% of that in drawings

so from 19 years of age ...............

50000x10 years = 5 lacs savings u can have ..........without filing return even ............

You don't have to worry at all , coz everything is in arms limit at present in your case.

please mention if any of the companies deducted TDS from you ?

Dont Worry. The amount involved is too less for an Income tax officer to waste his time on. File return for the Financial year 2009 - 10 as soon as possible. And forget about previous years.

I beg ur pardon Mr. ravikant choudhary ,How can u say that he will not be pennalised If he files retun of A.Y.2009-10(F.Y.08-09) ther will be a penalty of Rs 5000.In this case he can only file return of A.Y.10-11(with intt.)

@ Sagar...Please re-confirm your views...

The Power to levy penalty for late filing of return is a discretionary power of the Assessing Officer and it comes into picture only after the end of One year from the end of the Assessment year concerned i.e. only after 31.03.2011....
