When the Commissioner of Revenue Services makes a deficiency assessment for any taxes payable under this chapter to the state, the commissioner is authorized to make a deficiency assessment for any taxes payable under this chapter to a municipality and to hold a hearing, when requested in writing by any person aggrieved by the action of the commissioner or his authorized agent in fixing the amount of any tax, penalty or interest provided for by this chapter on or before the sixtieth day after notice of such action is delivered or mailed to such person. The deficiency assessment for any taxes payable under this chapter to a municipality shall bear interest at the rate of one per cent per month or fraction thereof from the date when the original tax was due and payable. When it appears that any part of the deficiency for which a deficiency assessment is made is due to negligence or intentional disregard of the provisions of this chapter or regulations adopted under this chapter, there shall be imposed a penalty equal to ten per cent of the amount of such deficiency assessment, or fifty dollars, whichever is greater. When it appears that any part of the deficiency for which a deficiency assessment is made is due to fraud or intent to evade the provisions of this chapter or regulations adopted under this chapter, there shall be imposed a penalty equal to twenty-five per cent of the amount of such deficiency assessment. No taxpayer shall be subject to more than one penalty under this section in relation to the same tax period. Once a deficiency assessment for any taxes payable under this chapter to a municipality is no longer the subject of a timely filed administrative appeal to the commissioner or of a timely filed appeal pending before any court of competent jurisdiction, the commissioner may collect, on behalf of such municipality, such taxes, and all interest and penalties added thereto by law, under the provisions of section 12-35 as if such taxes, penalties or interest due such municipality were “tax due the state”, as such term is defined in said section 12-35, and as if such term expressly included taxes, penalties or interest due to such municipality. Such taxes, and all interest and penalties added thereto by law, shall be treated, for purposes of subsection (a) of section 12-39g and for purposes of subsection (a) of section 12-739 as if they were taxes due to the state.
