The Tribunal reduced an estimated business profit rate from the rates adopted by the tax authorities to 4% of turnover, noting the absence of reliable comparable cases and the assessee's lower historical profits in the wholesale medicine trade. It also cancelled penalty for delayed filing of the audit report under section 271B, accepting reasonable cause where the assessee relied on a tax consultant and lived in a remote area. Further, it deleted the remaining penalty for non-compliance with notices under section 271(1)(b), holding that the same reasonable cause applied and that some defaults had already been effectively waived.
