Tax Remedies
-As prescribed by Sec. 248 (A) of the Tax Code, there shall be imposed, in addition to the tax required to
be paid, a penalty equivalent to 25% of the amount due in the following cases: 1. Failure to file any
return and pay the tax due thereon as required under the provisions of this Code or rules and
regulations on the date prescribed; or 2. Unless otherwise authorized by the Commissioner, filing a
return with an internal revenue officer other than those with whom the return is required to be filed; or
3. Failure to pay the deficiency tax within the time prescribed for its payment in the notice of
assessment; or 4. Failure to pay the full or part of the amount of tax shown on any return required to be
filed under the provisions of this Code or rules and regulations, or the full amount of tax due for which
no return is required to be filed, on or before the date prescribed for its payment
-Under RR No. 21-2018, interest was imposed on any deficiency tax due. Interest shall be assessed and
collected from the date prescribed for its payment until (a) full payment thereof or (2) upon issuance of
a notice and demand by the Commissioner or his authorized representative. As per the rate, Sec. 249 of
the Tax code states “double the legal interest for loans or forbearance of any money in the absence of
an express stipulation as set by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP). Hence, legal interest of 6% x 2 is
12%.
-According to Sec. 248(B), in case of willful neglect to file the return within the period prescribed by the
Code or false or fraudulent return is willfully made, the penalty to be imposed shall be 50% of the tax or
the deficiency tax. Furthermore, failure to report sales, receipts or income in an amount exceeding 30%
of that declared per return, and a claim of deductions in an amount exceeding 30% of actual deductions,
shall render the taxpayer liable for substantial under-declaration of sales, receipts, or income or for
overstatement of deductions.
-Delinquency interest is computed by adding the deficiency tax of P96,000 and surcharge of P24,000
multiplied by 12% and again multiplied to the period of 16 days (October 15 – October 31) as illustrated
below.
