128. The Government may, by notification, waive in part or full, any penalty referred to in section 122 or section 123 or section 125 or any late fee referred to in section 47 for such class of taxpayers and under such mitigating circumstances as may be specified therein on the recommendations of the Council.

Thus commisioner do not have the power to waive penalty, this power lies with Govt. Only Govt. by notification can waive the penalty.
