Levy of statutory interest must accompany assessments; omission requires revision or separate show cause interest proceedings. Omissions to charge statutory interest are distinct from assessment proceedings: levy of interest is mandatory but capable of reduction or waiver only under prescribed conditions and after tax quantification. Where omission occurs, interest should be ordered with the assessment; if revision under section 263 applies, remedial action should be taken, and if not, separate proceedings with a show cause notice must be initiated to consider waiver or reduction.
