Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a penalty is payable when tax remains unpaid after a demand notice is issued following an income tax return filing. The consensus is that typically, only interest is leviable in such scenarios, not a penalty. This distinction is important for taxpayers to understand their financial obligations.

Normally interest is only leviable in such cases.
