There is no penalty for payment of Advance-Tax. Only Interest u/s.234B and 234C is payable. However, there is a penalty u/s.140A (3) for failure to pay Tax and/or interest in accordance with the provisions of Sec.140A (1). Maximum penalty u/s.140A (3) is Tax in arrears and Minimum is as levied by AO.
