12 May 2015 Payment is not the only criteria to claim the expense.
.
Stationery is being regularly used for the business and if your purchases are of routine in nature you can avail deduction in FY 2014-15.
.
However, if the stationery has been purchased for the purpose of FY 2015-16, you have to claim the expenses in FY 2015-16.
