I believe, TCS is not receivable, it is a payment no need to keep in balance sheet as receivable, since the money goes to seller account. am i right

 

Hi,

Sales of Rs. 100, GST @ 18%, TCS @ 2%

In the books of Seller:

Customer A/c Dr.                              120

          To Sales                                            100

           To GST payable                                18

            To TCS payable                                2

In the books of Buyer:

Purchases A/c Dr.                              100

TCS A/c Dr.                                         2

 GST input A/c Dr.                              18

            To Creditors                                   120

Deposit of TCS by seller:

TCS A/c Dr.                                      2

            To Bank                                        2

can anyone tell me how tcs entry close in books of purchaser

Just like TDS, TCS amount paid by the buyer to be recorded as Receivable in Books, which will be adjusted with the tax liability for the particular financial year. In case of no tax liability the same can be claimed as refund while filing ITR for such Financial Year.
