Bangalore ITAT upholds
penalty levy u/s 272A(2)(e) on assessee-Trust for AY 2009-10, for filing of
return of income u/s 139(4A) with the delay of 541 days; Rejects assessee’s
stand that penalty should be deleted as the failure to file return was under
the bonafide belief and advice received from former deceased Accounts-in-charge
Manager of assessee Trust; ITAT remarks that for subject AY, levy of penalty
was mandatory even if reasonable cause was established, observes that
Parliament had inserted reference of Sec. 272A in the provisions of Sec. 273-B only
vide Finance Act, 2012 w.e.f. April 1, 2012; States that “The Act does not
confer any discretion on the AO not to levy penalty in case reasonable cause is
shown to exist”; Relies on SC ruling for Aditanar Educational Institution to
hold that the assessee claiming exemption u/s 11 should mandatorily file return
of income as per Sec. 139(4A).:ITAT
