The treatment for the sales will be
Mr. A A/c Dr. 2lacs
To Sales A/c 2lacs

Bank A/c Dr. 2lacs
To Mr. A A/c 2lacs.

For delivery made to wrong person, there won't be any accounting treatment as the TV will be taken back in normal business situation. There is also no transaction here in reality.

the TV is not returned by the person who get the TV BY mistake then what is the accounting treatment 

If No Money is received against T.V set then same will be loss for Business , so entry in the books of electronic shop .

Loss of T.V A/c Dr
To purchase A/c Cr
( Loss of a T.V set )

Note- Reduce one T.V set from stock journal .
No...
this is not a legal transaction then it's not acceptable.
So, TV will be return.

Wrongly  Delivered  T.V  was not  return  by the Customer  same is loss for Business , is the 2nd query  above .

can we also record it as

loss of goods/T.V  DUE to wrong delivery A/C dr

to purchase A/C CR  

Yes correct , same entry I have pass above , but at the same time you have to reduce one TV set from stock.
