Unlocking Benefits: E-commerce Goods Suppliers and the Composition Scheme

Image
  Can a composition taxpayer sell through an e-commerce operator in India? In the realm of tax compliance, the Composition Scheme emerges as a beacon of simplicity for small businesses, especially those navigating the complexities of e-commerce. Recent amendments have expanded the scope of this scheme, granting e-commerce goods suppliers the opportunity to embrace its advantages. Now, they can revel in the perks of a fixed tax rate based on turnover and streamlined compliance procedures. It's important to emphasize that this amendment exclusively pertains to the sale of goods via e-commerce platforms, excluding services. Service providers operating within the e-commerce landscape remain outside the purview of the Composition Scheme. This amendment represents a significant stride forward, lightening the tax load for e-commerce goods suppliers. It's a testament to fostering growth and adherence to regulations within the ever-evolving digital marketplace.

UDIN for Loan Purposes: Impact on Profit & Loss Account, Statement of Affairs, Computation, and ITR under Section 44AD

Image
Can UDIN be provided on profit & loss account, statement of affairs, computation, and ITR copy for loan purposes if ITR is filed under section 44AD? No, it is not necessary to provide a Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN) on the profit and loss account, statement of affairs, computation, and Income Tax Return (ITR) copy if the ITR has been filed under section 44AD. Section 44AD constitutes a presumptive taxation scheme that permits businesses to calculate their taxable income at a flat rate of 8% of their turnover. This scheme exempts businesses from maintaining conventional bookkeeping practices or undergoing financial statement audits by a chartered accountant. Consequently, the requirement for a UDIN, which is a distinctive document identification number generated by a chartered accountant for certifying or attesting documents, is negated. However, it's important to note that specific banks might still mandate a UDIN even when the ITR is filed under section 44AD. Su
