Hi,

For Professionals,books are maintained in Cash basis. Since this is a Hospital, mercantile basis should be used for maintaining books of accounts.

As for medicines, a stock register should be maintained wherein you can show opening stock, , purchases, consumptions and closing stock.

Prateek

THANKS, BUT MY TREATMENT IS CORRECT OR NOT?

YES, I WILL MAINTAIN STOCK REGISTER FROM THE NEXT YEAR.

PLS. HELP ME.

Yes sir, your treatment is correct.

Also, if your client is liable for tax audit, then quantitative figures of stock of medicines has to be shown in Form 3CD.
