This discussion clarifies the permissibility of penalties under the Income Tax Act. While penalties exist for various defaults, the Act generally disallows penalties paid for offences as expenditure when calculating income. The core principle is that penalties for violating the law are not tax-deductible.
According to the provisions of the Income-tax Act, if a person is penalised for violating a law, the penalty paid for the offence is not allowable as expenditure for the purpose of computing his income under the Income-Tax Act
Accordingly , it will not be permissible under the Income Tax act
