Under Section 234E of the Income-tax Act, a late fee of Rs 200 per day applies for every day the TDS statement (Form 24Q, 26Q, 27Q) is delayed, until it is filed.
The fee cannot exceed the total TDS amount deductible in that statement, and it must be paid before the return is filed. Separately, a penalty under Section 271H can apply in some cases of late or incorrect filing. Check your specific position with your CA.
