Yes, the assessee will only be required to pay the tax amount and not the interest under sections 234A, 234B, and 234C, if the assessee opts for the scheme.
Yes, if the penalty order has not yet been issued and the assessee opts for the scheme, the penalty proceedings under Section 271AAC will generally be automatically dropped.
