Hi,

A firm has not completed audit as per 44AB for FY 2017-18. This is the first time the firm is eligible for audit.

Last date for filing the belated return is 31st march 2019.

Please advice

Thank you.

Yes, Audit Report can be filled with late fees @ .50% of Turnover subject to maximum limit of Rs. 150000.

Thanks Sir. 

Will late fee be applicable even for furnishing audit report now? 

Other wise, if audit report is not gone for, is there any consequence? 

Late Fees will be applicable even if you will file audit report now. If assessee Fails to file Audit Report then Assessee in default .
