Tax payable is material to prosecution for failure to furnish a return under Section 276CC because the statutory exception depends on the assessee's tax liability. Where no assessment or other tax determination exists, the complaint does not allege tax payable, and a refund claim remains unaddressed, prosecution is misconceived. Wilful failure is also essential: the statutory presumption of culpable mental state may be rebutted through evidence showing no intent to evade tax. Evidence that property was jointly acquired, loan-financed, and that sale consideration was received by the spouse rebutted wilfulness. The convictions and sentences were set aside, and the assessee was acquitted.
