	U/S SECTION 23 RENT RECEIVED OR RECEIVABLE , THE WORD RECEIVED INCLUDES ADVANCE RENT ALSO BUT WAIT EXPERT COMMENTS.

yes friend's rent received/receivable does not include advanced rent  , i read it in v.k. singhania

THE CHARGING SEC OF HOUSE PROPERTY INCOME IS SEC-22

THE LANGUAGE OF SEC-22 :-

THE ANNUAL VALUE OF PROPERTY SHALL BE CHARGEABLE TO INCOME TAX .

MEANING OF ANNUAL VALUE IN SEC-23 WHICH SAYS ANNUAL VALUE IS :-

1.THE SUM FOR WHICH THE PROPERTY MIGHT REASONABLY  BE EXPECTED TO LET FROM YEAR TO YEAR i.e lower among municipal annual value and standard rent p.a

                                                                                   OR

2.THE ACTUAL RENT RECIEVED OR RECIEVABLE IF THE PROPERTY IS A LET OUT PROPERTY

    WHICHEVER IS HIGHER

NOW THE MAIN POINT IS WHAT IS THE MEANING OF WORD RECIEVED OR RECIEVABLE:-

IT DEPENDS UPON THE METHOD OF ACCOUNTING  REGULARLY FOLLOWED BY THE ASSESSE

SAY U HAVE RECIEVED RANT OF 14 MONTHS DURING P.Y 210-2011

1. IF CASH BASIS ACCOUNTING -----ACTUAL RENT RECIEVED = RENT OF 14 MONTHS

2 . IF ACCRUAL BASIS OF ACCOUNTING------------------ ACTUAL RENT RECIEVABLE= RENT OF 12 MONTHS ONLY  IF PROPETY IS LET OUT THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE 12 MONTHS

SUPPOSE WE RECED ADVANCE FOR MANDAPAM BOOKING IS IT TAXABLE AT THE TIME OF BOOKING. PLEASE CONFIRM  FOR E.G WE RECEIVED RS.70000/- AS ADVANCE HOW MUCH WE PAY GST AT THE TIME OF BOOKING
