Penalty for under-reporting or misreporting of income under section 270A requires clear identification and communication of the applicable circumstance of under-reporting and, where relevant, the act constituting misreporting. Failure to specify these statutory grounds in the assessment order, notice or penalty order denies the taxpayer an effective opportunity to respond and breaches natural justice.
