Description

Under the Income-tax Act, penalties are levied for various defaults committed by the taxpayer. Some of the penalties are mandatory and a few are at the discretion of the tax authorities. This book is about the provisions relating to various penalties leviable under the Income-tax Act.

It is this factor which is the reason behind so many of the provisions in fiscal enactments being meant for imposing adverse penal consequences against violation of the rules which ought to be followed.
