Penalty u/s-271F will be applicable only if you are required to file ITR u/s-139 (1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. If Gross Taxable Income before deduction under chapter - VIA was less than the basic exemption limit, no penalty u/s- 271F is applicable if ITR for the AY 2009-10 is filed after 31.03.2010

Practically penalty will not be attracted. But ITO has d right to impose d same If
GTI is higher than exemption limit and dere is no tax liability due to deductions of 80C etc.
