Penalty under section 270A is examined in light of whether liability arises from under-reporting or misreporting. The tribunal emphasises that under-reporting requires a settled legal obligation to report income; where survey occurs before year end and the return is filed within prescribed time with accepted returned income, under-reporting is absent and penalty cannot be sustained.
