Book Description
Law Relating to Under-reporting & Misreporting of Income is a comprehensive handbook that addresses the complexities of income tax penalties under Sections 270A and 271(1)(c) of the Income Tax Act. This book clarifies the differences between tax planning, avoidance, and evasion. It highlights how taxpayers may inadvertently cross into illegal territory by under-reporting or misreporting their income through accounting manipulations, non-disclosure, and misinterpreting legal provisions. For assessment years up to 2016-17, penalties were imposed under Section 271(1)(c) for concealing income or furnishing inaccurate particulars. From the assessment year 2017-18 onwards, Section 270A replaced these provisions, introducing the concepts of under-reporting and misreporting of income. This book analyses the evolution of these provisions, their application, and the distinctions between under-reporting and misreporting. This book is helpful for tax professionals, legal practitioners, and taxpayers seeking to understand the complexities of income reporting and penalties under the Income Tax Act. It combines theoretical analysis with practical tools, making it helpful for tax compliance or dispute resolution.
