Sir , My question is if export sale is made on 31st March & despatched from factory to port & received to customer in Dubai on 2nd April , what will be the point of time when ownership will be transferred to customer & what will be the criteria to decide in which period sale should be recognised.

The date of dispatch i.e., 31st march will be considered as the time when ownership transferred. sale will be recognized at time of despatch from factory to port.
