How is depreciation under Schedule II Companies Act reconciled with Section 32 IT Act in Karayanchavadi, Chennai?
Two parallel computations are mandatory. Schedule II Companies Act 2013 Part C prescribes useful life — 60 years for buildings (factory 30), 10 years for furniture, 3-6 years for computers, 8 years for plant — with the rate derived as 1/useful life. Section 32 of the Income Tax Act applies block-of-asset method with WDV rates — 10% buildings, 15% plant & machinery, 40% computers, 30% intangibles. The book depreciation goes into the Statement of Profit & Loss while tax depreciation is claimed in the income tax computation. The difference creates timing differences accounted for as deferred tax under AS-22 / Ind AS 12.
Applicable Laws & Rules
SectionSection 128 and 129 of the Companies Act 2013 — Section 128(1) requires every company to keep books of account at its registered office on accrual basis and double-entry system; Section 128(2) read with Rule 3 of Companies (Accounts) Rules 2014 permits electronic mode with back-up server in India; Section 128(5) preservation for 8 years; Section 129(1) financial statements to give a true and fair view in Schedule III format and comply with accounting standards notified under Section 133.
ScheduleSchedule III of the Companies Act 2013 — Division I prescribes Balance Sheet and Statement of Profit & Loss format for companies preparing financial statements under Indian GAAP (AS-1 to AS-29 notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules 2021); Division II for companies preparing under Ind AS (Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015); Division III for NBFCs preparing under Ind AS. Notes formats, rounding-off, current vs non-current classification and ageing schedules for trade payables / receivables / borrowings are mandated.
SectionSection 43B(h) of the Income Tax Act 1961 inserted by the Finance Act 2023 effective 1 April 2024 (AY 2024-25) — sum payable to a micro or small enterprise registered under the MSMED Act 2006 beyond the time limit specified in Section 15 (45 days where written agreement exists, else 15 days) is allowable as a deduction only in the year of actual payment. Vendor master Udyam classification and aging report at year-end are mandatory for the bookkeeper.
Relevant Court Rulings
Supreme Court (2022)
Checkmate Services P. Ltd. v. CIT (2022) 448 ITR 518 (SC) — Supreme Court held that employees' contribution to PF and ESI deducted from salary is allowable under Section 36(1)(va) only if deposited within the due date specified in the relevant statute (15th of next month for PF). Section 43B due-date relaxation does not apply to employees' contributions. Strict bookkeeping of statutory dues aging is now indispensable for any tax-deductible salary cost.
SA-240
ICAI Standard on Auditing 240 'The Auditor's Responsibilities Relating to Fraud in an Audit of Financial Statements' read with Section 143(12) of the Companies Act 2013 — auditor must report fraud above ₹1 crore directly to the Central Government in Form ADT-4 within 60 days; below threshold to the Audit Committee/Board. Common fraud red flags include management override of controls, period-end journals without supporting documents, round-sum entries, vendor bank account changes, bank confirmations not received and ghost employees in payroll. Bookkeeping practice must produce an unbroken audit trail.

How frequently should bank reconciliation be done for Karayanchavadi businesses?
Best practice is monthly Bank Reconciliation Statement (BRS) before closing the trial balance and computing GST output liability for the period. For Karayanchavadi businesses with > 100 daily bank transactions or with multiple OD / CC / term loan accounts, weekly or daily BRS is recommended.

Such sums are allowable only in the year of actual payment. Year-end aging of Udyam-classified vendors is extracted, unpaid balances are added back in the tax computation (Form 3CD clause 22) and a payment plan for early-clearance is recommended.
What is the difference between AS framework and Ind AS framework?
AS framework refers to Accounting Standards AS-1 to AS-29 notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules 2021 — applied by non-Ind AS companies.

How long must income-tax records be retained?
Rule 6F of the Income-tax Rules requires retention for 6 financial years from the end of the relevant assessment year. Section 149 reassessment window extends to 10 years for high-value escaped-income cases, recommending 10-year retention as best practice.
Are entries in books of account admissible as evidence?
Section 34 of the Indian Evidence Act 1872 makes entries in books of account regularly kept relevant whenever a transaction is in question, though not by themselves sufficient to charge a person with liability without independent corroborating evidence.
Are bank statements admissible as evidence?
The Bankers' Books Evidence Act 1891 makes certified copies of entries in bankers' books admissible as prima facie evidence of the matters and transactions recorded, relied on frequently where books of account are rejected or unavailable.
What is the difference between monthly and quarterly bookkeeping?
Monthly bookkeeping closes books each calendar month enabling timely GST and TDS compliance, advance-tax estimation, and lender-covenant reporting. Quarterly bookkeeping closes only every three months — workable for very small turnover but raises Section 145(3) rejection risk on dense-transaction businesses.

Form 3CD clause-wise schedules — clause 13 method, 14 inventory, 17 land/building 50C, 18 depreciation, 21 disallowance, 22 MSME 43B(h), 26 Section 43B, 31 269SS/T, 34 TDS, 44 GST expenditure — all extracted directly from the Tally trial balance with no last-minute scramble.
CARO 2020 21 Clauses Pre-Documented
PPE register, inventory physical verification, loans & investments, Section 185/186, deposits, statutory dues aging, undisclosed income, loan default, fraud reporting, NBFC compliance and cash losses — all CARO 2020 21 clauses prepared in advance for the Chennai client's auditor.
GSTR-3B vs GSTR-2B Match Improved
Monthly purchase register reconciliation against GSTR-2B for Chennai clients moves the GSTR-3B vs GSTR-2B match ratio above 98% — ITC reversal with 24% interest under Rule 36(4)(b) eliminated.
How the engagement runs end to end
Onboarding & Opening Balance Migration
For Chennai clients FilingPro collects prior audited financials, last trial balance and tax computation; verifies opening balances of fixed assets, debtors, creditors, statutory dues, deferred tax, advance tax / TDS receivable; and migrates to Tally Prime / Zoho Books with Schedule III re-grouping. Vendor master is built with Udyam classification.
Daily / Weekly Voucher Posting
Sales, purchase, cash, bank, journal and contra vouchers posted as documents flow on WhatsApp from the Chennai client. RCM bills under Section 9(3) booked separately with self-invoice. Capex segregated for AS-10 / Ind AS 16 PPE register and Section 32 block-of-asset addition.
Monthly BRS + GSTR-2B Reconciliation
Bank statements imported and BRS finalised for every account. Purchase register reconciled against GSTR-2B — supplier-not-filed, value mismatch, rate mismatch and 17(5)-blocked items flagged. Output GST liability reconciled with sales register; reverse charge under Section 9(3) brought to account.
What FilingPro brings to the engagement
Tally Prime Senior Hands
FilingPro accountants have built and re-grouped Tally Prime ledgers continuously since the Tally 9 era. Schedule III Division I/II re-classification, multi-godown inventory and statutory GST/TDS templates pre-wired for Chennai clients.
ICAI Accounting Standards Compliance
Every transaction is recognised, measured and disclosed under the applicable AS or Ind AS. Going concern (AS-1 / Ind AS 1), revenue (AS-9 / Ind AS 115), inventory (AS-2 / Ind AS 2), employee benefits (AS-15 / Ind AS 19) — all enforced at the entry level.
Schedule III Format from Day 1
For Chennai companies the trial balance is mapped to Schedule III current/non-current classification and ageing schedules from day 1 — no year-end re-grouping cycle, no auditor re-opening of vouchers.
What Karayanchavadi clients usually ask next: On the ground in Karayanchavadi, for the professional and salaried population of Karayanchavadi navigating personal-tax and home-office GST.
Glossary
Plain-English glossary for this service
Ledger
Principal book of accounts containing individual account-wise summary of all transactions affecting that account during the period. Forms the basis for trial balance preparation.
Trial Balance
Statement listing all ledger balances classified as debit or credit as on a particular date, used to verify the arithmetical accuracy of postings and as the starting point for preparing final accounts.
Sundry Debtors
Aggregate of customers and parties from whom amounts are receivable on account of sales of goods or services on credit. Disclosed under Trade Receivables in Schedule III Division I current-assets group.
Sundry Creditors
Aggregate of vendors and parties to whom amounts are payable on account of purchases of goods or services on credit. Disclosed under Trade Payables in Schedule III with separate MSME and non-MSME sub-classification per Section 22 of MSMED Act.
Suspense Account
Temporary holding account used to record entries that cannot immediately be classified to a specific ledger pending investigation. Must be cleared by year-end; carrying balances invite audit qualification.
Bank Reconciliation
Statement reconciling the bank balance per cash book with the bank balance per bank statement as on a given date, explaining variances arising from outstanding cheques, uncleared deposits, bank charges, and direct credits.
Outstanding cheques
Cheques issued by the business and recorded as payments in the cash book but not yet presented to or cleared by the bank as on the reconciliation date. A reconciling item in the BRS.
Uncleared deposits
Deposits recorded as receipts in the cash book but not yet credited by the bank as on the reconciliation date. A reconciling item in the BRS, typically arising from cheques deposited late in the day or in transit.
Reversal entries
Entries passed at the start of a period to reverse adjusting entries made at the end of the previous period, simplifying subsequent accounting for accruals and prepayments. Common for accrued income and accrued expenses.
Adjusting entries
Entries passed at the end of an accounting period to recognise accrued income, accrued expenses, prepaid expenses, depreciation, and provisions, so that the financial statements reflect the matching principle under AS-1.
Prepaid Expenses
Expenses paid in advance during the current period but pertaining to a future accounting period. Shown as a current asset and recognised as expense in the period to which they relate, applying the matching principle.
Accrued Expenses
Expenses incurred during the current period but not yet billed or paid. Recognised as expense in the period of incurrence with a corresponding liability under Other Current Liabilities, applying accrual basis of accounting.
By Industry
Industry-specific patterns in Karayanchavadi
How the local trade mix shapes this — Karayanchavadi businesses operate where the cluster of residential, retail, it services businesses that defines Karayanchavadi's commercial fabric.
Restaurants & Food Service
Common issue:Restaurants mix owner drawings, staff advances and cash purchases through the till, leaving unexplained cash and a suppressed purchase record that fails both GST margin checks and any bank loan appraisal.
How we handle it:Route all purchases through the firm's bank or a petty-cash imprest with vouchers, record aggregator (Swiggy/Zomato) settlements gross with their TCS and commission split out, and keep owner drawings in a separate capital account.
Professionals & Consultants
Common issue:Doctors, architects and consultants record only banked fees and miss cash receipts and TDS-deducted receipts, so Form 26AS shows more income than the books, triggering a Section 143(1) mismatch notice.
How we handle it:Reconcile fee income to Form 26AS/AIS every quarter, book gross receipts before TDS with the TDS credit posted separately, and maintain a simple receipts-and-payments plus expense ledger for the presumptive or regular return.
Construction & Contractors
Common issue:Contractors receive running-account bills with retention money and mobilisation advances that are booked as plain income or expense, distorting turnover and hiding the retention receivable that matters for both tax and working-capital finance.
How we handle it:Account for each contract with separate ledgers for gross bills, retention receivable, mobilisation advance and TDS under Section 194C, and recognise revenue on certified work done so turnover and margin are stated correctly.
Retail & Trading
Common issue:Retail and FMCG traders run large volumes of small cash and UPI sales that are recorded late or in a spreadsheet, so the books never reconcile with the bank statement and GST output in GSTR-1 drifts away from the sales ledger, inviting Section 61 GST scrutiny of turnover.
How we handle it:Move to daily POS-to-ledger posting with weekly bank reconciliation, tag every sale with its GST rate at entry, and reconcile the sales register to GSTR-1 and the e-way-bill data each month before filing.
IT & Software Services
Common issue:IT-services firms bill overseas clients in foreign currency and book revenue on receipt rather than on accrual, mismatching the books against FIRC/e-BRC records and understating debtors, which distorts both the P&L and the Section 44AB audit position.
How we handle it:Recognise export revenue on invoice date at the RBI reference rate, track each invoice to its FIRC and e-BRC, and maintain a separate EEFC and receivables schedule so foreign-exchange gains and TDS credits reconcile at year end.
Case Studies
Anonymised engagements we have handled
Real client situations (names changed); illustrative of the kind of work we do.
Software migrationRetail
Tally migration to Zoho Books completed without audit-trail break
Issue:A retail chain migrated from Tally to Zoho Books mid-year. The audit-trail requirement under Rule 3(1) proviso of the Companies (Accounts) Rules 2014 effective 1 April 2023 mandated continuous edit-log preservation. A naive migration risked breaking the chain — Tally edit logs ending at one date and Zoho logs starting later — exposing the company to CARO 2020 Clause (xi)(b) qualified reporting and Section 128(6) penalty.
Approach:We froze the Tally environment with full data export and an independent CA's certification of closing balances, ran Zoho Books with opening balances as on migration date supported by a reconciliation statement, retained the Tally data file in read-only mode for 8 years per Section 128(5), ensured Zoho audit-trail was enabled from day one with admin override disabled, and obtained an SOC-2 report from Zoho establishing platform-level controls.
Outcome:Auditor issued unqualified CARO Clause (xi)(b) reporting; migration completed in 14 days without operational disruption; ₹8 lakh first-year saving on Tally enterprise renewal; engagement SOP updated for software-migration projects.
Disaster recoveryRetail
Books reconstruction post fire-loss under Insurance and Income-tax claim regimes
Issue:A retail client's records were destroyed in an electrical fire — physical vouchers, registers, and the server hosting Tally data file. The client needed reconstructed books to file an insurance claim under Section 80 of the Insurance Act 1938 and to respond to a pending Section 143(2) scrutiny notice. Without books, Section 145(3) rejection followed by Section 144 best-judgment was inevitable.
Approach:We invoked the Bankers' Books Evidence Act 1891 to obtain certified statements from all bankers covering the disputed periods, sought GSTR-2A and GSTR-2B downloads from the GSTN, requested counterparty TDS certificates under Section 203 from major customers, reconstructed sales from POS-system cloud backups, mapped expenses from credit-card statements and supplier ledgers, and rebuilt opening stock from prior-year audited financials with quantitative reconciliation.
Outcome:Books reconstructed within 8 weeks; insurance claim of ₹42 lakh sanctioned; Section 145(3) rejection averted on demonstration of reconstructed books; scrutiny closed with ₹3.4 lakh addition; engagement protocol revised mandating off-site daily Tally backup.
Bank reconciliationRestaurants
BRS gaps of Rs 3.6 lakh resolved monthly
Issue:A three-restaurant chain with combined monthly bank deposits of approx Rs 42 lakh across two current accounts had been preparing BRS only at year-end. Year-end reconciliation for FY 2023-24 threw up unreconciled credits of Rs 1.8 lakh (POS settlement timing) and unreconciled debits of Rs 1.8 lakh (auto-debit subscriptions, payment-gateway charges) totalling Rs 3.6 lakh of variance.
Approach:Introduced monthly bank reconciliation by the 10th of following month, integrated POS-settlement file imports into Tally via banking connector, separated payment-gateway charges into a dedicated indirect-expenses ledger, set up uncleared-cheques register and outstanding-deposits tracker.
Outcome:Monthly BRS variance brought down from Rs 3.6 lakh year-end to under Rs 8,000 each month; gateway-charge expense captured Rs 4.2 lakh per annum that was previously netted off revenue; cleaner revenue figures supported the GST output reconciliation.
Closing stock AS-2Retail
Closing stock at NRV avoided AS-2 audit qualification
Issue:A garments retailer with closing stock of Rs 68 lakh was valuing inventory at cost on FIFO basis. End-of-season unsold stock of approx Rs 14 lakh had been marked down 50% in store but was still being carried at cost in the books, breaching AS-2 paragraph 24 which requires lower of cost or net realisable value.
Approach:Conducted item-wise NRV assessment for end-of-season SKUs; wrote down Rs 7 lakh to align book value with NRV; introduced quarterly stock-valuation review with category-wise NRV testing; separated current-season and prior-season inventory in stock ledger.
Outcome:Audit qualification on AS-2 avoided; income-tax-deductible write-down of Rs 7 lakh claimed under Section 145A read with valuation method; clean inventory ageing for next FY.

“FilingPro took over our Tally Prime books from a mid-sized previous accountant. Within the first month they re-grouped the trial balance to Schedule III Division I, fixed three years of mis-classified leasehold improvements and reconciled GSTR-2B against our purchase register flagging ₹3.4 lakh of unmatched ITC. Audit closed without any qualification.”

Common questions from Karayanchavadi clients. Call 9566-068-468 for specific queries.
Two parallel computations are mandatory. Schedule II Companies Act 2013 Part C prescribes useful life — 60 years for buildings (factory 30), 10 years for furniture, 3-6 years for computers, 8 years for plant — with the rate derived as 1/useful life. Section 32 of the Income Tax Act applies block-of-asset method with WDV rates — 10% buildings, 15% plant & machinery, 40% computers, 30% intangibles. The book depreciation goes into the Statement of Profit & Loss while tax depreciation is claimed in the income tax computation. The difference creates timing differences accounted for as deferred tax under AS-22 / Ind AS 12.
Section 129(1) of the Companies Act 2013 mandates that financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company, comply with the accounting standards notified under Section 133, be in the form provided in Schedule III and contain disclosures specified by SEBI for listed companies. 'True and fair' is the cornerstone — financial statements must reflect economic substance, follow consistent accounting policies disclosed under AS-1 / Ind AS 1, recognise all known liabilities including contingent liabilities under AS-29 / Ind AS 37 and apply the matching and prudence principles.
Yes. Beyond Accounting & Bookkeeping, we cover GST, income tax, TDS, company and LLP registrations, digital signatures, audits and finance documentation — so Karayanchavadi clients keep all their compliance under one roof. Ask us about anything on 9566-068-468.
AS-9 recognises revenue on transfer of significant risks and rewards (sale of goods) and on a proportionate basis as services are rendered. Ind AS 115 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers' applies the 5-step model — (1) identify the contract, (2) identify performance obligations, (3) determine transaction price, (4) allocate transaction price to performance obligations, (5) recognise revenue when/as performance obligations are satisfied. The Ind AS 115 framework requires variable consideration assessment, financing component for deferred payments > 12 months, principal vs agent assessment and contract asset/liability disclosure.
AS-3 'Cash Flow Statements' and Ind AS 7 require classification of cash flows into Operating, Investing and Financing activities. Direct method (operating section) presents major classes of gross cash receipts and payments — sales, supplier payments, employees, taxes; gives clearer information but rarely used. Indirect method starts with profit before tax and adjusts for non-cash items (depreciation, provisions), working capital changes (debtors, creditors, inventory) and items relating to investing/financing. Section 129 mandates cash flow statement for all companies except OPC, small company and dormant company. Listed companies must use the indirect method as per SEBI LODR.
Not sure whether Bookkeeping applies to you? Call 9566-068-468 and describe your situation — we will tell you plainly whether you need it, when, and what it involves, before you spend anything. Many Karayanchavadi enquiries start exactly this way.
Section 16 of the CGST Act 2017 conditions ITC on (a) tax invoice / debit note, (b) receipt of goods or services, (c) tax actually paid by supplier (verified via GSTR-2B match), (d) GSTR-3B filed by recipient, (e) payment to supplier within 180 days (else reverse with interest). Section 17(5) blocks ITC on motor vehicles below 13 seats (except for sale/transport businesses), food & beverage, club & health membership, life insurance, works contract for immovable property and personal-consumption supplies. Bookkeeping practice: ITC voucher in Tally is split into eligible / ineligible at entry stage to enable monthly Table 4 reconciliation.
Section 188 of the Companies Act 2013 requires Board approval for related party transactions and shareholder approval for material transactions exceeding prescribed thresholds (10% of turnover for sale/purchase of goods, 10% of net worth for borrowing/lending). Form AOC-2 disclosure of arm's length determination is annexed to Board's Report under Section 134(3)(h). AS-18 / Ind AS 24 require disclosure of name of related party, relationship, transaction value, outstanding balance, write-offs and pricing basis (arm's length or otherwise). KMP, relatives of KMP, holding/subsidiary/associate companies and entities under common control are within scope.
Your engagement is handled by our in-house team led by Ravivarman R (Founder, 15+ years, 500+ engagements), with M. E. Chokkalingam on compliance and S. Jayaprakash on GST matters. You deal with named, qualified people throughout your Accounting & Bookkeeping — not a call centre.
AS-17 'Segment Reporting' applies to enterprises whose securities are listed or are in process of listing, and to all enterprises with turnover > ₹50 crore. Segments are identified by business and geographical lines based on risks and returns. Ind AS 108 'Operating Segments' applies the management approach — segments are reported as they are reported internally to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). A reportable segment crosses the 10% quantitative threshold of revenue, result or assets. Disclosure includes segment revenue (external + inter-segment), segment result, segment assets, segment liabilities, depreciation and impairment.
AS-15 (Revised 2005) and Ind AS 19 require defined benefit gratuity to be provided based on an actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit (PUC) method. Companies with ≥ 50 employees must obtain an independent actuarial certificate annually with assumptions on discount rate (G-Sec yield), salary escalation, attrition and mortality (IALM table). Past service cost is recognised immediately. Under AS-15 actuarial gains/losses pass through P&L; under Ind AS 19 remeasurements are recognised in OCI without recycling. Gratuity liability beyond 5-year service vests under the Payment of Gratuity Act 1972 — even prior unvested liability is provided.
Yes. We do not disappear after filing — Karayanchavadi clients can come back to us for follow-up questions, notices or renewals tied to their Accounting & Bookkeeping. Ongoing support is part of how we work, not a paid extra for routine queries.
Form 3CD is the statement of particulars under Rule 6G(2) annexed to the tax audit report. It contains 44 main clauses + sub-clauses covering: clause 13 method of accounting, clause 14 inventory valuation, clause 17 land/building transfer 50C, clause 18 depreciation Section 32, clause 19 35-deductions, clause 20 deemed profit u/s 28, clause 21 disallowance Section 36/37/40/40A/43B, clause 22 MSME 43B(h), clause 23 payments to related persons 40A(2)(b), clause 26 Section 43B, clause 30C GAAR, clause 31 Section 269SS/T, clause 34 TDS compliance, clause 36A deemed dividend, clause 44 GST-wise expenditure. Books must be closed 30 days before audit to enable clause-wise schedule preparation.
Zoho Books or QuickBooks?
CARO 2020 (Companies Auditor's Report Order issued under Section 143(11) of the Companies Act 2013) applies to all companies except OPC, small companies, banking companies, insurance companies and Section 8 companies meeting certain thresholds. It mandates auditor reporting on 21 clauses including (i) PPE & intangible records, (ii) inventory physical verification, (iii) loans & investments, (iv) Section 185/186 compliance, (v) deposits Section 73-76, (vii) statutory dues, (viii) undisclosed income, (ix) loan default, (xi) fraud reporting under Section 143(12), (xvi) NBFC compliance, (xvii) cash losses. Bookkeeping must produce loan schedules, FAR, statutory dues aging and stock physical verification reports.
Both AS-2 and Ind AS 2 mandate inventory valuation at the lower of cost or net realisable value (NRV). Cost includes purchase cost (less rebates, trade discounts), conversion cost (direct labour and systematic allocation of fixed and variable production overhead based on normal capacity) and other costs to bring inventory to its present location and condition. Cost formulas permitted: First-In-First-Out (FIFO) or Weighted Average. LIFO is prohibited under both standards. NRV is the estimated selling price less estimated cost of completion and estimated cost of disposal. Inventory write-downs to NRV are charged to P&L.
We serve businesses in every part of Karayanchavadi, from Mount - Poonamallee - Avadi Road, Alapakkam Main Road, 3rd Main Road, Mount Poonamallee Highway and Mugalivakkam Road to the Perumal Koil Street, Poothapedu Road, 11th Street and 14th street commercial pockets, with Bookkeeping handled end to end.
