Delay in filing Form 10 was condoned where refusal would have exposed the assessee to tax liability and caused grave hardship despite no benefit arising from the delay. The High Court accepted the explanation that the default resulted from the Chartered Accountant's failure, supported by affidavit, and noted that the same officer had already condoned the delay in filing the return of income.
