Settlment of ledger A/c

I have one client, whom I had sold material of 600000 during 20-21 period.
due to covid 19, he is not able to pay the due amount and and we have not filled the some bill of him in gstr return.
Now after some negotiation he is agreed to pay 250000 in cash and want to closed the account and he want no due certificate from us.
Please tell me to properly accounting the same in our books of accounts

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to account for a ledger settlement where a client can only pay £250,000 of a £600,000 debt due to COVID-19. The advice suggests writing off the remaining £350,000 as bad debts, crediting receivables, and debiting the bank with the cash received. It also highlights potential issues with unaccounted cash if GST returns haven't been filed for the original amount.

Write off 35,000₹ as bad debts. Then credit receivables to bank debit side

 

As you have not filed gst return. Also assuming no e way bill made. So entire cash 2.5 lakhs becomes unaccounted cash.

I meant 6 lakhs 2.5 lakhs = 3.5 lakhs write off. 2.5 will be bank and less receivables. If one does not file for it, then like the above answer, it can be unaccounted cash which will attract it radar. Sry
