09 July 2024 Based on your query regarding disclosing small payments to suppliers and non-GST purchases:

1. **Non-GST Purchase Disclosure**:
- If the amount paid to a supplier is small (under ₹5000) and it does not attract GST, you can classify it as a non-GST purchase. These purchases should not be included in GSTR-3B as they do not impact your GST liability.

2. **Limit for Non-GST Purchase Bill**:
- There is no specific limit for a single non-GST purchase bill against a single person under GST rules. However, for practical purposes and to maintain compliance, it's advisable to document all transactions accurately, regardless of the amount.

3. **Use of Dummy Names in Purchase Invoices**:
- It is not recommended to use dummy names on purchase invoices. Invoices should accurately reflect the details of the transaction, including the name of the supplier, their GSTIN (if registered), and other relevant details. Using dummy names can lead to compliance issues and may not be accepted during audits or inspections.

### Practical Steps:
- **Document Management**: Maintain proper records of all transactions, including small payments, and categorize them correctly as GST or non-GST purchases.
- **Invoice Accuracy**: Ensure invoices from suppliers are accurate and comply with GST rules if applicable. Even for non-GST purchases, maintain a record of invoices for accounting and audit purposes.
- **Compliance**: Regularly review your accounting practices to ensure they comply with GST regulations and maintain transparency in financial reporting.

For specific cases and detailed advice tailored to your business, consulting with a tax professional or a GST consultant is recommended to ensure proper adherence to GST laws and regulations.
