Every person whose Gross receipt exceeds 1 crore is to get the accounts audited as per section 40AB of IT Act.My doubt is what constitute the Gross receipts of a Bank? Since Banking means accepting deposits for the purpose of lending should the revenue expenditure be deducted from total receipt in arriving at the gross receipts for the purpose of this section.

Thank you for the response sir. I would like to know if there is any circular of CBDT or any decisions on how to compute the "gross sales turnover" or " gross receipt" of banks for the purpose of determining the liability under sec.40 AB.

In case of banks and financial institutions, gross receiepts mean interest earned (gross, not the net interest) and other income like fee income, income from discounting, treasury income, etc.
