hello,

this time in nov 2010 final new course we have a question on 269ss.

my query is regarding that-----> If i have deposited rs.15000 through accounts payee check in a non banking company then after (say) 2 days i deposit another 15000 in cash. should i be penalised on rs 15000 in cash deposited.

note: as per institute if the first deposit was by accounts payee check so the next deposit would alone be considered to apply 269ss....but if first payment was by bearer check it wolud be combine first and second pasyment to check 269ss applicability.

I dont agree ...pls clarify....
