11 June 2011 Dear Experts,

We have charged one of our debtor towards compensation for cancellation of purchase order from him.

We have raised normal sales invoice for this.

My query is, whether this will be sales or other income?

Thanks,
Regards
Sushil.

12 June 2011 There is no transfer of property in form of goods and therefore, it is not a sale. Mr. Vivek has said rightly that a debit not should have been raised. sureshjain.nj@gmail.com
