Query relating to income tax return

WHERE IS IT WRITTEN IN THE INCOME TAX ACT THAT FILING NIL RETURN IS COMPULSORY FOR PARTNERSHIP FIRM ?
 
SECTION 139(1)(a) OF IT ACT 1961 READS THAT "A COMPANY/FIRM IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT ITS RETURN OF INCOME TAX (REGARDLESS OF THE QUANTUM OF INCOME OR LOSS)"
 
WHAT I UNDERSTOOD FROM ABOVE IS THAT THE ACT SUGGESTS ONLY ABOUT FILING OF RETURN OF INCOME REGARDLESS OF THE QUANTUM OF INCOME OR LOSS.
