Penalty u/s 271AAB(1A)(b) was levied for suo moto disallowance of personal expenses u/s 37 by the assessee in the return filed in response to a notice u/s 153A. The assessee had made the disallowance in the search assessment completed u/s 153A, where no concealment was found. The issue of levying penalty u/s 271AAB in such circumstances is no longer res integra, following the Delhi High Court's decision in Neeraj Jindal. Accordingly, the penalty u/s 271AAB is deleted.
