Debit note is sent by purchaser to seller in case of purchase returns, to inform that seller account has been debited with the amount equal to the purchase returns, it also contains the quantity of goods, value of goods, and the explanation for returning the goods with the reasons relating to damages, etc... 

 

Credit note is sent by seller to purchaser accepting the return and it informs that he is crediting the customer accounts in his books with the value of goods that has been returned and with the necessary information similar to a debit note.

Debit & Credit notes are used as supplimentory invoices/documents to support a particular transaction/Entrry  made in books of A/c,  Mainly used in Sales & Purchases but can also be used in any other situations like penalise a supplier of Machinery for delay in supply.

Debit Note mean KAM KARNA/KATNA in case supplier or service provider but in case Debtor, BADANA

Credit Note mean Badana in case supplier or service provider but in case Debtor, kam Karna

 

Debit?Credit  Notes are the document to debit/credit a personal account. It means you will debit the account of the person for any activity like Sale Return, purchase Return, fee, differences, discounts, penalty, write offs and many more as the case may be. This document is an internal document. You may similarly receive debit/credit notes from third party for the reasons given above. Generally these are disputed items and therefore the other party must accept/admit the same to be recoverable...
