Cash deposits in firm account

Quick Summary

Depositing large cash sums, particularly over Rs. 2 lakhs in a single day, by partners into a firm's current account may not be treated as capital. Such transactions can trigger qualifications in a tax audit report due to potential violations of Section 269ST, which limits cash transactions for both individuals and firms.

24 September 2020 hello everyone

can cash deposited by partners in current account of partnership firm account be attributed as capital of partners. Total deposit on a single day is around Rs. 14 lacs. Likewise there are few more instances of cash deposits more than 2 lacs on single day by partners. Will this go for qualification in tax audit report?

kindly clarify

24 September 2020 Yes, this go for qualifications in tax audit report.
It is self explanatory i.e., wherever Section 269ST is applicable, a partner of the firm can take only up to “less than Rs. 2 lakhs” from the firm in cash etc. modes in a single day. The similar situation will be applicable on receipt by firm from its partner.
