Electricity bill paid through a middleman via RTGS.
Whether that expense will be allowed or not bcoz as per section 40(A)(3)
"where assessee incurs any expenditure, in respect of which payment or aggregate of payments made to a person in a single day otherwise by ACCOUNT PAYEE cheque drawn on a bank or by an ACCOUNT PAYEE bank draft or use of electronic system through bank account exceeds 10000, such expenditure shall not be allowed as deduction."

and my query is that whether amount paid via RTGS should be made in favour of electricity department (Becoz as per law interpretation payment should be account payee whether in form of cheque/bank draft/electronic mode.

Through middleman it will be not account payee bcoz rtgs will be in favour of middleman.

An assessee who is engaged in the trading of Marble Powder lost 2 bags due to the negligence of the transporter on account of rain.
This is the 1st event of loss in his business.
The assessee recovers the purchase amount of the 2 bags from the transportation expenses to be paid to the transporter. The assessee has recorded net amount paid to the transporter as transportation expenses in his books.

My queries:
a. Whether the loss should be treated at as normal loss(for the time being, leave the amount recovered from transporter aside)?
b. In case its normal loss, whether itc should be availed on these two bags?
c. Whether any treatment is to be made of the amount recovered from transporter?

As per the MCA notifications on MSME, the company needs to file in MSME Form I for all outstanding dues ( more than 45 days) to Micro or small enterprises suppliers on Jan 22, 2019 before May 30, 2019. Further we need to file half yearly return for outstanding amounts.
My query is, Do we need to file the form for any outstanding amount for the period Jan 22, 2019 to March 31, 2019 as it will not be covered in initial or half yearly return ?

we are a dealer of ambuja cement. Now the company is issuing us credit notes with gst for rate reduction which is fine, but along with that they are issuing us credit notes in the name of discount without any gst on them. Since these discount are forming part of indirect income and thus creating a difference between data reported under income tax and gst portal.

my question is can these type of financial credit notes without gst be issued or not.
