As your comes to know from notice of govt department and this is also part of penalty and you have not paid and accrued during last years. as per my understanding you have to pay to govt the same amount in current year.hence in my opinion for the purpose of accounting of this item please refer Accounting slandered 5 Accounting for prior period items.
