Ineligible input tax credit claims triggered interest for late tax payment and a penalty for late payment; the statute permits a taxpayer to avoid higher penalty by pre-paying tax with interest and a reduced penalty under specified pre-payment options, and notifying the tax authority in writing. The petitioner did not exercise any pre-payment alternative and admitted and credited the tax later, so the assessment confirming tax, interest and penalty was sustained and the writ petition dismissed.
