    Assessing Officer has already initiated proceedings for imposition of penalty under section 271(1)(c) of the Act. That being the case, the argument of the learned Authorised Representative that the Assessing Officer has not initiated penalty proceedings under section 271(1)(c) of the Act on the basis of the specific reasoning of learned Commissioner (Appeals) on which a part disallowance under section 10A of the Act was made, in our view, is hyper–technical and superfluous. Therefore, it does not merit consideration.
