HC held that penalty proceedings under Section 271(1)(c) were unwarranted. The AO had previously accepted the full partition of the HUF during assessment under Section 143(3), rendering subsequent challenges inappropriate. The assessee's treatment of assets as a transfer was deemed a genuine mistake, not a deliberate attempt to evade tax. The notice initiating penalty proceedings differed from the eventual penalty order, constituting a procedural defect. Consequently, the Tribunal's decision to set aside the penalty order was upheld, effectively ruling in favor of the assessee and negating the imposed penalty.
