Part IV · Assessment of Levy

10. Additional assessments

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

(1)

Where it appears to the Assistant Commissioner that a registered person chargeable with the levy has, for the relevant quarter, paid as levy an amount less than the due amount of the levy payable by him or chargeable from him for that quarter, the Assistant Commissioner may, assess such person at the additional amount at which, according to the opinion of the Assistant Commissioner, the levy ought to have been paid by such person. The Assistant Commissioner shall give such person a notice of such assessment accordingly.

(2)

Where an assessment is made under subsection (1), the amount so assessed shall be deemed to be the levy in default in respect of such person for that relevant quarter and accordingly such person shall, from the date on which such person ought to have paid the levy for that relevant quarter, be liable to the penalty in respect to such amount as specified in section 18.
