Dear Chintan,

it is possible to ivoke provision of section 271 (1) (c) even when the income of the assessee is below exemption limit and tax payable is nil. I have few decisions on that but will not be able to provide you before a day or two due to some reasons. I'll surely give it to you asap.

Thanks
