Excessive or inordinate delay irrelevant when reasonable cause exists. Reliance placed on precedents condoning delays up to 21 years. TDS u/s 194C computed on year-end figures from Receipt & Payment account incorrect; remitted to AO for fresh examination of each payment's TDS applicability. Assessee directed to update contact details, provide necessary documents, and cooperate; failure may lead to denial of leniency. Appeals allowed for statistical purposes.
