05 August 2010 sir whts the difference between FINE N PENALTY cn u explain me in a simple example

05 August 2010 Fine :- A minor / small failure with a small tap to correct. Like, not paying LIC premium in time. Fine is generally to be self assessed and paid.

Penalty:- A willful default with a punch to knock off. Like, not submitting IT return, service tax return etc. It is more of a willful nature. Penalty are generally imposed by authories and not self assessed. At times, in statute penalties are spelt out but one should not self impose the same and should take the scope to represent oneself for relief, if any
