    Query that no interest is payable on demand against penalty accepted after final appellate authority decision (First and second appellate authority decided in favour):

    Section 156- Notice of demand: When any tax, interest, penalty, fine or any other sum is payable in consequence of any order passed under this Act, the Assessing Officer shall serve upon the assessee a notice of demand in the prescribed form specifying the sum so payable:

    Section 220- When tax payable and when assessee deemed in default: (1) Any amount, otherwise than by way of advance tax, specified as payable in a notice of demand under section 156 shall be paid within thirty days of the service of the notice……………

    (2) If the amount specified in any notice of demand u/s 156 is not paid within the period limited sub-section (1), the assessee shall be liable to pay simple interest at one percent for every month or part of a month comprised in the period commencing from the day immediately following the end of the period mentioned in sub-section (1) and ending with the day on which the amount is paid.

    Further the first proviso of sub-section (2) mentioned that as a result of an order u/s 154/155/250/254/260/262/264 or 245D(4) the amount on which the interest was payable u/s 220(2) reduced the interest shall be reduced accordingly.

    Therefore interest u/s 220(2) of the Act is required to be paid
