02 August 2013 According to me Mukesh you need not account for the Chq issued of Rs. 7,00,000/- . You have to account this Rs. 7,00,000/- in the next accounting year when these chq clears.

Alternatively show it as Chq in transit in current year's balance sheet.

Whether cheque in Transit should be shown under "current Liabilities" or under "Cash and Cash Equivalent" in Balance Sheet

Thanks

02 August 2013 If the bank account does not have overdraft facility, under Other current liabilities - "Balance in Bank Account"

If OD facility is available, under Short term borrowings - "Overdraft"
