Quashing of prosecution u/s 276C and 277 - Penalty u/s 271(1)(c) deleted by CIT and confirmed by Tribunal - the prosecution cannot be sustained since the penalty after having been deleted by the complainant following the Appellate Tribunal's order, no offence survives under the Income Tax Act and thus “quashing of prosecution is automatic.”
