Section 271(1)(c) IT Act | Bona Fide Computational Errors Not Penalizable as 'Inaccurate Particulars' : ITAT Mumbai
ITAT Mumbai sets aside a ₹6.17 lakh penalty under Section 271(1)(c) of the Income Tax Act, ruling that inadvertent computational errors-even if leading to underreported income-do not constitute furnishing 'inaccurate particulars' absent fraudulent intent. The decision reinforces that penalties under the provision require proof of deliberate concealment, offering relief to taxpayers and tax professionals.
