Waiver of interest under Section 220(2A) of the Income Tax Act


Quick Summary
This judgement from the Madras High Court addresses a petitioner's request for a waiver of interest under Section 220(2A) of the Income Tax Act. The court found that the petitioner failed to meet all three cumulative conditions required for a waiver. Specifically, the petitioner did not establish that the default in payment was due to circumstances beyond their control, nor did they demonstrate full cooperation in the income tax proceedings. Consequently, the court dismissed the writ petition.
