Penalty proceedings under section 270A require a clear sequential charge: the Assessing Officer must first identify under-reporting and then specify whether it is attributable to a particular form of misreporting. Where the notice alleged only under-reporting but the penalty order proceeded on under-reporting in consequence of misreporting, without stating the exact statutory clauses invoked, the proceedings were held invalid for breach of natural justice.
