Where
the duty has not been levied or has been short-levied or the interest has not
been charged or paid or has been part paid or the duty or interest has been erroneously
refunded by reason of collusion or any wilful miss-statement or suppression of
facts, the person who is liable to pay the duty or interest, as the case may
be, as determined under sub-section (2) of section 28 shall also be liable to
pay a penalty equal to the duty or interest so determined :
Provided
that where the duty or interest
determined to be payable is reduced or increased by the Commissioner (Appeals),
the Appellate Tribunal or, as the case may be, the court, then, for the
purposes of this section, the duty or interest as reduced or increased, as the
case may be, shall be taken into account :
Provided
further that where any penalty has been
levied under this section, no penalty shall be levied under section 112 or
section 114.
