Treatment
of Sales return, credit Note or Debit Note while collecting TCS under section
206C(1H)
|
Liability of collection of TCS
arises on the date of receipt of the sales consideration from the buyer.
Therefore, if sales return is made or credit note is raised before collection
of sales consideration and thereafter, sales consideration is received net of
Credit Note then TCS shall be collected on net amount. However, if sales return is
made or credit note is issued after collection of sales consideration then
TCS shall be charged on gross amount without deducting credit note or sales
return.
In case of debit note, excess
payment is received over and above the decided sales consideration.
Therefore, the amount collected pursuant to debit note shall be liable to TCS
on date of receipt. |
