As per this section, individual should their income tax periodically in below manner:

• 30% of total income tax should be paid by 15-September of financial year.
• 60% of total income tax should be paid by 15-December.
• 100% should be paid by 15-March.

• If tax paid by 15-December is less than 60% of total income tax payable then 1% interest per month on difference (60% of total tax - tax paid) for  3 months.
• If tax paid by 15-March is less than total income tax payable then 1% interest on total outstanding tax.

For example: Individual's total income tax payable is 20,000/- for whole financial year, so individual should deposit:

• 30%   - 6,000/- till 15-September.
• 60%   - 12,000/- till 15-December.
• 100% - 20,000/- till 15-March.

• 8,000/- on 1-March & 
• remaining 2,000/- on 20-March.

Interest / penalty calculated under this section as below:

• On 15-September, difference is 1,000/- (6,000 - 5,000), so penalty will be 30/- (1% on 1,000 [difference on 15-September] for 3 months). 
• On 15-December, difference is 2,000/- (12,000 - 10,000), so penalty will be 60/- (1% on 2,000 [difference on 15-December] for 3 months).
• On 15-March, difference is 2,000/- (20,000 - 18,000), so penalty will be 20/- (1% on 2,000 [difference on 15-March] for 1 month).

So total penalty under this section 234C is 110/- (30 + 60 + 20).

Now if individual deposited / paid 17,000/- till 31-March then should pay penalty on balance income tax (3,000/-): 

• 30/- (1% on 3,000/- for one month) if will pay due income tax till 30-April.

Now if individual deposited / paid 17,000/- till 31-March then should pay penalty on balance income tax (3,000/-):
