margin on sale of milk

it is like the retail business..we should take the income from selling the packets and margin on it as gross receipts..

Margin on milk will be the gross receipt's

For Presumptive taxation in the income tax act, we take the gross receipts means all receipts taking from the related business activity.

 

In your case we take the sale of milk packets 

 

If u not satisfy with my answer u can contact to Income Tax customer care for reconfirmation

 

Thank you

i m totally agree with manav.

in case of presumtive taxation under section 44AD gross reciepts means reciepts out of sale of goods

so, in your case gross rrcpts will be sale of milk packets

Gross receipt is the  total revenue (including interest and rents) before deducting expenses so,  the Gross receipt will be the total receipts  received from sales of milk packets.

Agree with Manav.

i think it should total receipts from sale of packets. If we take only margin here, then why not take margin in other trading activities also??

I am still not confirmed. There are two views. Whether to take sale of packets or the margin as gross receipts? 

i am also in same view ...

that gross receipts will include sale of milk packets ...nt margin receipts

hi.

i agree with manav . gross receipts is the total receipts from the business.

the margin between sales and purchase would be gross profit and not gross receipts.

in 44AD we will take 8% of total sale receipts as presumtive Income.

Hope its clear now.

agree with manav...
