Dear Experts, Kindly advise on matters relating to refunding a customer in cash to the extent of INR 200,000 or less on the same day of sales. (i.e)

1) The customer purchased an item for INR 150,000 and paid the amount in cash.

2) The same day, due to some reason, the customer returned the item to the seller and is seeking a refund in cash.
