21 September 2012 44AA gives the various books of accounts to be maintained. At present the better way of maintaining all such accounts is use TALLY software.

22 September 2012 You mean PRESERVE? Normally the business houses keep it for 16 years as per general clauses Act. Now with the computerisation, people are having books of accounts right from day one.
