Penalty u/s 270A and 271AAB - Defective notice u/s 274 - under reporting of income - search and seizure operation - The Tribunal found that the penalty notices under sections 270A and 271AAB were not in compliance with the legal requirements, as they failed to specify the exact limb under which the penalties were being levied (misreporting or underreporting of income).
