Non-reporting of an international transaction may attract penalty under section 271AA, but a bona fide belief based on reasonable cause can exclude liability where the transaction has no effective nexus with an Indian project office or permanent establishment, no related income is attributed to India, and the transaction is accepted at arm's length. The notes state that penalty for a Korean sale of raw materials to an Indian associated enterprise was deleted on this basis.
