    Is tcs to be applied on jnvoice? Or tcs to be tracked from debtors collection? Is tcs to be calculated on 50 lacs sales with gst or basic value?

  2. Akash Enterprises says:

    Dear Sir,
    Please clear me that we can dedcut tcs to our customer who is not resale our yarn but he is manufacturing fabric from our yarn.Our turn over Rs.30 crore in f.y 2019-20 and we have business our customer above Rs.50 Lakh in 2019-20

  3. KALPANA says:

    We Have Deemed Export sales (i.e Sale to EOU unit against form A). As per my understanding, there is no need to deduct TCS u/s 206C(1H) am i right or wrong.

  4. C. Arthanareeswaran says:

    Sir, how is it possible to collect TCS when the payment is received. I think that the section 206 C (1H) should be altered in such a way that when the sale value exceeds 50 lakhs to a buyer, TCS is to be collected from the buyer by adding it in the invoice itself. Kindly give your opinion.

    Dear Sir, Illustration 1 & 3 is totally confusing. 1st the sales value before Oct is considered for TCS calculation, but in the 3rd illustration sales value before Oct is not considered. Please clarify.
