The HC granted ad-interim relief to the Petitioner, holding that under the pre-amendment proviso of s.275(1)(a) of the IT Act an order imposing penalty under Chapter XXI ought not be passed while an appeal against the assessment is pending before the Appellate Tribunal; accordingly the impugned penalty order is set aside and remitted to the AO with a direction that penalty proceedings be kept in abeyance until the ITAT disposes the pending appeal.
