This discussion clarifies how to apply the presumptive taxation scheme under Section 44AD when dealing with mixed payment methods or advance receipts. It addresses specific scenarios like payments received partly by cheque and partly via TDS, and how to treat advance payments received through banking channels years before the bill is raised. The advice also touches upon the treatment of bad debts and unrealised sales within the 6% or 8% profit calculation.

just a correction here. If you are doing accrual basis. the bad debts should either be reduced from turnover. if you are covered under GST, file a proper credit note to reduce your turnover. For unrealised sales, there is no reason to include it under 8% because it has not been received at all at this stage.
