Whether decisions u/s 271(1)(c) will be applicable for penalty u/s 270A.

As per Bombay H.C. (Goa Bench)(Full Bench) in Mr. Mohd. Farhan A. Shaikh in T.A. M 51 & 57 of 2012 and many other decisions of ITAT, No penalty u/s 271(1)(c) is leviable if - In Notice u/s 271(1)(c) - Irrelevant part not strike off. In penalty notice u/s 270 A - under reporting of Income or misreporting of income not strike off. But in the body of assessment order initiation of penalty is for under- reporting of income. Query- Whether the aforesaid decision of Hon'able Bombay HC will be equally applicable in penalty u/s 270A ?
