When it is a group meal, and he is in doubt, and he eats it other than at an allowable occasion, there is an offense of pācittiya. When it is a group meal, and he perceives it as not a group meal, and he eats it other than at an allowable occasion, there is an offense of pācittiya. When it is not a group meal, and he perceives it as a group meal, there is an offense of dukkaṭa. When it is not a group meal, and he is in doubt, there is an offense of dukkaṭa.
