During the assesement proceedings the Ao may ask such details. Assessment stands for the right judgment of the true and fairness of the taxable income of the assessee. So in this process such questions / details are asked for. IN in your case the list of creditors is too long, you provide the details of such creditors but for confirmation you may request to the AO for increasing the threshhold limit of 5Lac to say 25 lac or 50 Lac or you can even plea that the threshhold of 5 lac is too low in your case, the limit may be raised to a higher limit even for providing the details also.

hi, it depend upon turnover. u should personally ask that its not possible to furnish if he did not agree, you should give him list of creditor in writing and attach some of confirmation and state that we are awaiting. you should also attach copy of courier receipt where in you have asked creditor by written letter to provide you confirmation. However you must give name, adress of creditor above 5 lac in that letter.
