The maximum penalty for non filing/ late filing of Central Excise Returns can be Rs 5,000 under Rule 27 of Central Excise Rules, 2002.
The Central Excise Officer shall issue a Show Cause Notice demanding general penalty for late filing of returns under Rule 27 of CER, 2002. Based on the reply furnished by the assesse, the officer has the power to reduce the amount of Penalty based on reasonable ground, if any, for the delay.

Currently Penalty for late filing is governed by Rule 12 (6) of Central Excise Rules:
''Where any return or Annual Financial Information Statement or Annual Installed Capacity Statement referred to in this rule is submitted by the assessee after due date as specified for every return or statements, the assessee shall pay to the credit of the Central Government, an amount calculated at the rate of one hundred rupees per day subject to a maximum of twenty thousand rupees for the period of delay in submission of each such return or statement''.

One of the ways to avoid such cases would be confirming the status of return (upload /filed / rejected) on next day of uploading

Thank you so much for clearing the issue Mr. Nagendra.
So can the AO penalise @ Rs.100 per day till the delayed submission i.e. 28days * 100 = Rs.2,800/- or any higher amount can also be imposed?
Thank you again :)

in my view after Notf.No.08/2016 CE (NT) dated 01.03.2016 the penalty for Annual Capacity Return was removed. means that this penalty was not payable for earlier period also. what everybody thinks about it
