03 October 2016 Thank you, Sir!
I still have a small doubt. Mine is the sole proprietorship firm, so would it be applicable for that also?

03 October 2016 the above said conditions are applicable in the case of a pvt company and not in the case of sole properitorship/partnership firm etc

03 October 2016 but suppose if you have to comply with other law, then what that law says will make a difference. e.g. as per PUNJAB VAT ACT, Invoice must be properly addressed dated, description of the goods, duty leviable must be disclosed on invoice
