Sir/ Madam,
One of our client has not received C form for the F.Y.2008-09 and we have also received VAT Scrutiny notice for the same period. The Officer has advised us to pay interest till date and also 100% penalty. Are we really liable to pay penalty? And if yes why?
Kindly reply to the query asap.
