(b) IFS code of the bank.

Unbilled Revenue in GSTR-9C: Why Service Industry Reconciliations Go Wrong!
Many professionals struggle with Unbilled Revenue while reconciling turnover in GSTR-9C.
What causes the confusion?
- Revenue is recognised in books as per AS-9 / Ind AS-115
- GST liability arises based on Time of Supply (Section 13)
Under GST: Invoice for services can be issued within 30 days from date of service
If no advance is received, GST may be paid in the next FY, even though revenue is booked in the current FY
Result?
Books turnover ≠ GST turnover due to timing difference.
GSTR-9C adjustment logic:
➕ Unbilled revenue at beginning of FY → Table 5B
➖ Unbilled revenue at end of FY → Table 5H
Reference point: Previous and current year audited financials

🔥📛 HC: Form GST ASMT-10 notice mandatory before issuing SCN u/s 73 for returns scrutiny
➡️ The Court held that initiation of proceedings under Section 73 must be preceded by scrutiny of returns under Section 61. This requires issuance of Form GST ASMT-10 to confront discrepancies. Since this was not done, the SCN was deemed without jurisdiction.
➡️ Revenue’s failure to issue Form ASMT-10 before proceeding under Section 73 was considered a clear violation of statutory procedure. The HC relied on Rajasthan HC in Goverdhandham Estate (affirmed by SC) to declare such action unauthorized and void.
➡️ The SCN was based on mismatch between the annual return and reconciliation statement due to non-furnishing of Table 14 of GSTR-9C. Since filing Table 14 was optional for FY 2017-18, absence of such data could not legally constitute a discrepancy.
➡️ The Court emphasized that GST is a self-assessment regime. Verification of correctness of returns can only be done through Section 61 scrutiny, and any conclusion of wrongful ITC availment must flow from this process. Without following it, Section 73 jurisdiction cannot be assumed.
➡️ As the Revenue invoked Section 73 without complying with mandatory Section 61 procedures, the HC ruled the entire proceedings—including the SCN for ITC mismatch of ₹19.5 crores—unauthorized and contrary to law.

📌 Crypto F&O Losses – How to reportin in ITR ?
A query that is increasingly coming up among professionals:
How to disclose gains or losses from trading in Crypto Futures & Options (F&O) and whether they can be carried forward under the Income-tax Act, 1961?
Let's analyze it legally.
Step 1: Speculative Transaction – Section 43(5) of Income Tax Act, 1961
✅ A transaction settled otherwise than by actual delivery is a speculative transaction.
✅ Exception: F&O on a recognized stock exchange (with STT, client code etc.) is not speculative.
Step 2: Are Crypto Exchanges recognized?
✅ “Recognized stock exchange” is as per SCRA, 1956.
✅ Crypto exchanges are not recognized under SCRA.
✅ Hence, Crypto F&O = Speculative Business.
Step 3: Treatment of Losses (Sec. 73)
✅ Speculative Loss can be set off only against speculative profits.
✅ Can be carried forward for 4 A.Ys.
✅ To be reported under Schedule P&L → Speculative Business in ITR.
Common Errors: Many wrongly show Crypto F&O under “ordinary business” or under 115BBH (VDAs). 115BBH applies to spot trades in VDAs. Crypto F&O is derivative speculation.
⚠️ Disclaimer: This post is for educational purposes only and does not constitute professional advice. Readers are advised to evaluate the facts of each case and refer to the relevant provisions of the Income-tax Act before taking any position.

Post 23rd July 2024, a considerable number of taxpayers and professionals have raised concerns about the confusion surrounding the correct treatment of Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) on sale of property.
What is taxable? Is indexation still allowed?
Does the new utility reflect correct computation?
Let’s decode, because what’s being calculated, what’s being reported, and what’s actually taxable are currently not aligning. 🧵
