Deemed concealment under Explanation 3 to section 271(1)(c) may apply where a taxpayer files a return only in response to a notice under section 148 and lacks reasonable cause for not filing the original return. However, the tax sought to be evaded must be computed under clause (c) of Explanation 4 after reducing tax deducted at source before the section 148 notice. Where pre-notice tax deducted at source exceeds the final assessed tax liability, no tax is sought to be evaded and penalty under section 271(1)(c) is not leviable. The penalty was deleted.
