Quick Summary
This discussion explores the accounting treatment for 'sale of goods on approval'. The core question is whether revenue is recognised upon delivery of the goods or when the customer formally approves the purchase. Participants debated the timing of revenue recognition, especially concerning financial year-end cut-offs, using an example of goods delivered in December 2021 with approval in January 2022.

What software? Global settings define 16 months to record and manipulate older quarter. 

I forgot to ask all prominent CA's here why does india operate in a  non calendar year? I know why india lives heavily on taxes and it cant survive 9 months (till december) to collect taxes as per global years or calender years. India cant heavily rely  on filings. They must have a strategy to cushion themselves. Crap sometimes my internet gets stuck and even my ipad doesnt work while blogging. I get tired to answer questions because keystrokes make errors.
