<h1>CIT Can Intervene in Appeals to Reduce Penalties u/s 271(4A) Without Time Limit or Appeal Withdrawal Requirement.</h1> The Commissioner of Income Tax (CIT) can intervene under Section 271(4A) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, even during an appeal before the Appellate Assistant Commissioner (AAC) or Income Tax Tribunal. An assessee appealing a penalty order is not required to withdraw the appeal to seek the Commissioner's intervention. The CIT may reduce or waive penalties if conditions are met, even after penalties are confirmed by appellate authorities. The CIT can reconsider applications if jurisdiction was initially declined. No time limit exists for filing under Section 271(4A), and these guidelines also apply to Section 18(2A) of the Wealth Tax Act, 1957.
