Interest u/s 50 runs at 18% p.a. day-wise on tax paid in cash after the due date — and unlike the late fee, it has no cap. Ye late fee ke alawa alag se lagta hai. Returns also file sequentially: one skipped month blocks everything after it, aur 2 periods miss hone pe e-way bill bhi block ho jata hai.
