Dear Experts,

For our Gratuity the plan assets is LIC. So we make contributions every year and the amount is reduced from our Gratuity provision in Books. Now, One employee transferred from Group company to our company. So the gratuity of his is transferred to our LIC Account. Now, the LIC Fund statement shows the premium received is Rs 39 lacs paid by us from our bank account. And the gratuity of the employee Rs 2 lacs is also shown as premium received in LIC fund statement. The issue is for the 39 lacs paid, we can pass entry as

Gratuity provision A/c Dr Rs 39 lacs
To Bank Rs 39 lacs

But for the employee's gratuity amount Rs 2 lacs what entry should I pass in books. The Actuarial Valuation report shows that the total employer contribution is Rs 41 Lacs (Rs 39+Rs 2 lacs).

I will debit Gratuity provision with Rs 2 lacs but what ledger should corresponding credit carry. Our company follows Accounting Standards.

Sir,

I am purchasing from a supplier applicable for TDS under section 194Q on interstate purchases. I have got an invoice dated 31-05-2025 on 5th June 2025. The said invoice was booked and TDS collection was accounted during the month of June 2025 and paid on or before 7th July without interest on TDS. Whether this treatment was correct or may I liable to interest on the said transactions.

Imps payment can be made to vendor through current account as per income rules? It's payment for business purposes

What remedy is available to the assessee if the rectification request filed u/s 154 against the Order of CIT (A) was not disposed within 6 months, the limit prescribed u/s 154(8) ?

I have some business income - freelance (presumptive tax) plus other income. Till now (FY-23-24), I had filed tax in old regime in ITR4 or 3.

Last year (FY-23-24) as default was new tax regime, I filled 10-IEA to opt for Old tax regime for filling my returns.

This year (FY-24-25) and moving forward wanted to use new tax regime with ITR4 / 3 (with Business income).

So do I need to file 10-IEA to "opt in" for new tax regime this year (FY-24/25) for ITR4 /3 or will it be automatically default to new tax regime.

Kindly clarify.

We have filed GSTR-1 for Jun-22 on time, in this return B2C outword supply of Nov-21 amended in Table-10, by mistake taxable value filled 1 digit excess (i.e. 10,000 instead of 1000) now 9000 difference shown between GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B.

No GSTR-9 filed,

what should I do?

I am under the impression only supply of goods need to be entered in gstr4 purchase and expenses like rent, bank charges can be avoided while filing Gstr4. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Have the following a income. Need clarification whether ITR 4 can be used this year filing (FY24-25)

1. Business income - using Presumptive Taxation.
2. interest on FD/Saving.
3. LTCG approx. 70k (less than 1.25Lacs)
4. Minor pension amount of approx. Rs 6000/ P/A and dividend of Rs 200 (this year).

Last year had used ITR 3. This year I understand ITR4 has this facility to report LTCG if its less than 1.25 Lacs per annum.

Kindly confirm whether ITR 4 can be used this year (FY 24-25) for above transactions.
