01 March 2018 Even if no books of accounts are maintained, for your business payments and receipts for your own requirements you need to know on any date details of your debtors and creditors. You can't say I have no details. You may maintain the details in rough form also.
For the purpose of scrutiny turnover and debtor and creditors amounts are required for comparison purposes.
