No penalty will be charged when you are due a refund and fail to do so.
When you are due a refund and fail to file your income tax return to claim the refund amount that you are due they do not charge the penalty because if you fail to claim the amount it will eventually be lost.
If you were entitled to a refund on April 15th, and the penalty for late filing is not more than your refund, and you file within three years of the original due date of the return (including any applicable extensions of time to file), then, yes, you will get a refund.
When filing a late IRS form, you will receive a letter that will tell you whether you will owe a penalty. This will depend on how late it is and the circumstances.
Usually none if you don't owe-otherwise there could be late fees tacked on.
No. All penalties with the IRS are based on a percentage of what you owe. If you don't owe anything, there is no penalty. You should be aware, however, that you only have three years from the date the return was originally due (including extensions) to claim a refund or else it is lost forever. So as of today (6/11/2008) you can only still get a refund on your 2005, 2006, and 2007 returns.
No penalty..but the return may be considered incomplete and not filed...which could cause late filing penalties and interest to be charged.

Not filing your income taxes will have you facing a penalty by the IRS. According to legal zoom: "Well, you end up paying a penalty on the amount you owe at 5% per month (4.5 % for not filing and 0.5% for not paying). The total penalty for failure to file and pay can eventually add up to 47.5% (22.5% late filing, 25% late payment) of the tax owed. Interest, compounded daily, is also charged on any unpaid tax from the due date of the return until the date of payment" http://www.legalzoom.com/taxes/personal-taxes/what-are-penalties

In the case where you do not file the TDS Return within the prescribed timeline, you will be subject to penalty imposition under Section 234E of the Indian Income Tax Act. Consequently, Rs 200 will be imposed on you for each day delayed in the filing. However, in the matter where you do not file a TDS Return, a penalty of Rs 10,000 can be imposed on you, which can extend up to Rs. 1,00,000, along with the late filing fee. Moreover, not just non-filing but filing an incorrect TDS/TCS return can also result in penalties. However, if you can demonstrate that you have paid the due taxes, late filing fees, and any applicable interest to the government, and you have filed the return within one year from the due date, you will not incur penalties for delayed filing.
