Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the calculation of penalties under Section 270A of the Income Tax Act. It confirms that both surcharge and education cess are indeed added to the tax payable amount when determining the penalty on under-reported income. The penalty is calculated based on the difference in tax liability, not just the income difference.

Yes HEC and surcharge will be added.
