Dear Prabhu,
How did this happen? the assessee must have any info. whether it is his revenue/loan taken/loan disbursed etc.... and if no clue regarding that, then create a suspense A/c, but the problem would be in regards to determination of nature of receipt i.e. revenue/loan etc...

Check the ledgers of sundry balance written off of the previous years. It could be a payment from a client whose balance was writen off in the previous years.

Dear Prabhu
You can keep the amount in Suspence Account for whole of the year.
Only when the year is going to end, you have to decide whether you want to adjust the same as Income in that year or would like to carry forward it to next year by transferring the same in Creditors/Advance Received from Customers so that the same can be adjusted in later years.
thanks
Harish
