29 July 2010 Every receipt must be backed by proper bill and name of the party. That would suffice.

29 July 2010 If the receipt is a petty sum even name and address would do.

In case of huge sum being received say above Rs. 50,000 then you should ask for a PAN card copy. Not for every receipt.

In case of banquet halls being booked then keep proper records like date, name of person, purpose, address.
