HC granted relief to petitioner seeking condonation of delay in filing revised income tax return under s.139(5). Court considered multiple factors including director's personal circumstances (family issues, mother's illness requiring spine surgeries), company's operational challenges (ERP implementation, high staff attrition), and management's inability to detect incorrect figures until s.142(1) notice.

Court emphasized necessity of considering human elements when evaluating statutory time limit compliance under IT Act.
