Benefits of Proprietorship

  •  Minimum Compliance

Sole Proprietorships have minimum compliance as this firm is identified by its government and tax registrations. Therefore, the degree of its agreement is confined to the yearly filing of the service, sales or professional taxes.

 

  •  Simple to Begin

Any sole proprietorship is simple to begin. One needs to simply have a GST Registration in place. Hence, the procedure is not complicated. Therefore, the sole proprietorship business can be set up in 15 days with the help of a PAN card for identity and proof of address.

  • Economical

When compared to an OPC or One Person Company, a Sole Proprietorship is economical due to its minimum compliance requisites. Even in the long-term perspective, it is still inexpensive. It works out much cheaper because one would not need to hire an auditor. One of the main reasons why small merchants and traders choose it.

Brief Description

  • The idea of One Person Company in India was carried through the Companies Act, 2013 to support entrepreneurs who on their own are competent in starting an enterprise by allowing them to create a single person economic entity. One of the most important benefits of a One Person Company (OPC) is that there can be only one member in an OPC, while a minimum of two members is required for organizing and managing a Private Limited Company or a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP). Similar to a Company, a One Person Company is a different legal entity from its promoter, offering limited liability assurance to its sole stockholder, while having continuity of the company and being easy to combine.

 

  • Though a One Person Company supports a lone Entrepreneur to run a corporate entity with limited liability security, an OPC does have a few imperfections. For instance, every One Person Company (OPC) must choose a candidate Director in the MOA and AOA of the company - who will become the partner of the OPC in case the sole Director is useless. Also, a One Person Company must be turned into a Private Limited Company if it passes an annual turnover of Rs.2 crores and must file audited economic statements with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs at the end of every Financial Year like all kinds of Corporations. Therefore, it is necessary for the Entrepreneur to carefully examine the characteristics of a One Person Company before incorporation.

  •  The Articles of the Association (AoA) which lays down the by-laws on which the company will operate

 

  • Since there are only 1 Director and a member, a nominee on behalf of such person has to be appointed because in case he becomes incapacitated or dies and cannot perform his duties the nominee will perform on behalf of the director and take his place. His consent in Form INC – 3 will be taken along with his PAN card and Aadhar Card.

 

  •  Proof of the Registered office of the proposed Company along with the proof of ownership and a NOC from the owner.

Benifits

  • After settling on your business model, it's necessary to decide between the Private limited company registration and LLP, by understanding their diversity and benefits they give, to decide what’s best for your company model.

 

  •  The most vital purpose for listing as LLP is limited accountability. The members of the firm are only responsible for a small number of shares incurred by it. This is completely different from proprietorship and partnership where the individual assets of directors and partners are not preserved if the business becomes bankrupt.

 

  •  Separate Legal Entity

LLP is a separate legal entity from the co-workers. Each associate can sue the other in case a situation occurs. It has an unbroken existence that follows regular succession, i.e., the partners might leave, but the company remains. A term of resolution has to be mutually agreed on for the firm to dissolve.

  •  Flexible Agreement

Transferring the title of LLP is also simple. A person can quickly be inducted in as a nominated partner and the ownership switches to them.

  •  Suitable For Small Business

LLPs having a capital amount of fewer than 25 lakhs and turnover below 40 lakhs per year do not need any formal audits. It makes the listing as LLP useful for small companies and startups.An LLP can own or take property because it is identified as a juristic person. Associates of LLP cannot claim the property as theirs.

  •  No Owner / Manager Distinction

An LLP has associates, who own and operate the business. This is different from a private limited company, whose executives may be different from stockholders. For this reason, VCs do not invest in the LLP structure.

Check if your firm qualifies for LLP in India

  •  Starting a business requires certain specific conditions to be satisfied to be prepared for registering as an LLP.

 

  •  The normal partnership structure and LLP share the same characteristics when it comes to organic administration, profit distribution, and tax obligations. But, it offers the partners less financial liability (limited liability).


 Any business who has :.

  • At least two partners are required to form an LLP. There is no limit to the maximum number of partners

 

  •  The nomination of a natural person, if a body corporate is a Partner

  •  Address proof for the office of LLP. The registered office of an LLP does not have to be a commercial space. Even a rented home can be the registered office, so long as a NOC is obtained from the landlord.

 

  •  Concerning the changes in the FDI regulations dated November 10, 2015, foreign investors are now permitted to have a 100% FDI in the automatic route LLP. The 100% FDI in the LLP is granted to foreign companies who operate in activities or sectors where 100% FDI is considered permissible through the channels of the automatic route. Also, there should not be any performance prerequisites that are linked to FDI. A definite interpretation of the terms such as ‘internal accruals’ and ‘ownership and control’ has been provided concerning the LLP. Thus, Foreign investment is made smoother and quicker with FDI in LLP.


 The LLPs will also be permitted to opt for downstream investment in a different company or even choose LLP in those sectors which allow 100% FDI following the automatic route. This does not come up with any performance constraints that are FDI linked.

The requirements for private limited company registration are:

 Members : A minimum number of two and a maximum number of 200 members or shareholders are required as per the companies’ act 2013 before registration of the company.

 Directors : A minimum number of two directors is required for registering the private limited company. Each of the directors should have DIN i.e. director identification number which is given by the ministry of corporate affairs. One of the directors must be a resident of India which means he/she should have stayed in India for not less than 182 days in a previous calendar year.

Name : It is one of the major components of a private limited company. The name of the company contains three parts i.e. the name, the activity, and private limited company. It is necessary for all private companies to use the word private limited company at the end of its company name. Every company has to send 5-6 names for approval to the registrar of the company and all the names should be unique and expressive. The name for approval should not resemble any other companies name. So choosing the right company name is an important component is it will stay with the company throughout its life.

 Registered office address : While going for the registration of the company, the owner should provide the temporary address of the company until it does not get register. However when the company has been registered then the permanent address of its registered office should be suited with the registrar of the company. The Registered office of the company is where the company’s main affairs are been conducted and where all the documents are placed.

Obtaining a digital signature certificate : In today’s modern world everything is done online.

Advantages of Private Limited Companies

Ownership : In a public company, regulation and ownership of shares can be sold to the public on an open market. On the other hand, in a private company, shares can be sold or transferred to other people by the choice of the owner. Shares of such companies are owned by founders, management or a group of private investors. Shares here are not sold in the open market. Thus there will be fewer shareholders. This means less complexity and confusion in decision making and management.

 Minimum Number of Shareholders : For a private company, a minimum number of required shareholders is 2, whereas, for a public company, you require a minimum of 7 shareholders.

 Legal Formalities : Legal formalities are sometimes very expensive and time-consuming, aren’t they? If you’re planning to start a public company, you better be prepared because there is a long list of legal formalities for forming a public company. Private companies have a comparatively shorter list.

Disclosing Information : A public company is required to disclose their financial reports to the public every quarter, as it will affect public investment; private companies are not subjected to any such compulsion.

 Management and Decision Making : Management and decision making becomes more complex and confusing in public companies as more number of shareholders is to be consulted. This complex procedure is eliminated in a private company as the number of shareholders is less.

 Focus of Management : Managers of Public companies are focused on increasing the value of shares, whereas managers of the private company are more flexible in the short term and long term business decisions.

 Stock Market Pressure : Private companies are not pressurized by the stock market and you don’t have to worry about shareholder expectations and interference as long as they work within the law. Shareholders in public companies are focused on current earnings and they exert pressure on the company to increase earnings.

 Long Term Planning : Managers of public companies are pressurized to increase earnings in the short term in order to increase the value of their stock. Private companies can focus on long-term earnings as such pressure is eliminated.
 

Minimum Share Capital : You will be needing a lot of money for a public company. A public company requires a minimum share capital of Rs. 5,00,000. For a private company, the earlier minimum number of the share capital was Rs. 1,00,000, but now there is no such minimum compulsion. Therefore there is no pressure of fund requirements.

 Confidential : It is obviously not appropriate, for competitors to know about your business secrets. Confidential information such as executive compensation, legal settlements, and other essential information cannot be kept reserved in public companies. Such information is more secure in a private company.

Therefore, a Private Limited Company is less complicated compared to a Public company. It is comparatively less expensive and less time-consuming.

image

Characteristics of Public Limited Company

Directors : As per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 to start a public limited company, a minimum of 3 directors are required and there is no restriction on the maximum number of directors.

 Limited Liability : The liability of each shareholder is limited. In simple words, a shareholder of a public limited company isn’t personally responsible for any loss or debts of the company for any amount greater than the amount invested by them; contrary to partnerships and sole proprietorships, where the partners and business owners are jointly and severally liable for the debts of the business. However, this characteristic of a public limited company does not offer immunity to the shareholders. The shareholders will be held responsible for their illegal actions.

Paid-up capital : A public limited company is required to have a minimum paid-up capital of Rs 5 lakh or such higher amount as prescribed under the act.

 Prospectus : A prospectus is a comprehensive statement of the affairs of the company issued by a public limited company for its public and there is a requirement under the Act for public limited companies to issue a prospectus. However, there are no such provisions for Private Limited Companies. This is because private limited companies cannot invite the public to subscribe for their shares.

 Name : It is a compulsory requirement under the Companies Act, 2013 for all the public companies to add the word ‘limited’ after their name.

Advantages

While some critics frown on the use of government funding for public housing assistance, the Section 8 program has its advantages :

  •  Reduced Poverty Rate : With the high cost of finding an apartment for rent, many low-income families end up spending the majority of their income on rent. With assistance from the Section 8 program, a smaller income can stretch further and families can do more with their budget. In turn, this helps families climb out of the poverty cycle, reducing the U.S. poverty rates as a whole.

 

  •  Reduced Crime Rate : Some traditional public housing facilities, especially in urban areas, become breeding grounds for crime. Placing tenants in privately owned rentals keeps families out of danger and reduces overall crime rates.

 

  •  Increased Opportunities : Families who participate in Section 8 housing programs are frequently able to move out of impoverished areas and into neighborhoods with better school systems and increased job opportunities.
image

Eligibility

To incorporate a Section 8 company a minimum of two persons are required over the age of 18 years with at least one person being an Indian citizen and resident.

Why Is PAN Important?

PAN Card is important for taxpayers as it is necessary for all financial transactions and is used to track the inflow and outflow of your money. It is important when paying income tax, receiving tax refunds, and receiving communication from the Income Tax Department. The Indian Budget 2019 proposed that individuals who do not have a PAN can use their Aadhaar number to file returns and for any other purpose where PAN was earlier mandatory. This means that if you have not linked your PAN with Aadhaar yet, or do not have a PAN but have an Aadhaar, you don't have to either link PAN and Aadhaar or apply for a new PAN. However, the rules about this are still in the process of creation/update/approval. That said, PAN continues to be necessary for a large number of monetary transactions. PAN Card also serves as a proof of identity.

The benefits of TAN

  •  Tax Deposits :
  • When you’re depositing tax, you must quote TAN in documents. TAN is used for deductions such as salary, interest, or dividends. When depositing tax, you must undertake these steps:

 

  •  Use Challan type 281 for the deposit of tax deducted or collected at source.

 

  •  It is important to quote the correct 10-digit TAN, along with the name and address of the deductor on each challan used for depositing tax.

 

  •  For indicating separate sections and the correct nature of payment code in relevant columns, you can use separate challans.
  • Unique Identification :
  • TAN is a unique identification number given to those who are deducting or collecting taxes at source, on behalf of the Income Tax Department, which makes every individual tax deductor or collector identifiable by his or her TAN.

image

Reason For Implementation

For obtaining a life certificate, a pensioner earlier needed to present himself/herself before the Pension Disbursing Agency or had the life certificate issued by authority where they served and had it delivered to the disbursing agency. This very requirement of personally being present in front of disbursing agency or getting a life certificate often became a major hurdle in the process of seamless transfer of pension amount to the pensioner. It was noted that it causes a lot of hardship and unnecessary inconvenience particularly for the aged and infirm pensioners who cannot always be in a position to present them in front of the particular authority to secure their life certificate.

In addition to this a lot of governments employees post their retirement choose to move to different location either to be with their family or other reasons, hence causing a huge logistical issue when it comes to accessing their rightful pension amount.

External website that opens in a new window seeks to ease this very problem by digitizing the whole process of securing the life certificate. It aims to streamline the process of getting this certificate and making it hassle free and much easier for the pensioners.

Need for Health Insurance

Medicare or medical costs are rising year on year. Inflation in medicare is higher than inflation in food and other articles. While inflation in food and clothing is in single digits, medicare costs usually escalate in double digits.

For an individual who hasn’t saved that much money, arranging for funds at the eleventh hour can be a task. This is particularly daunting for seniors, given that most ailments strike at an advanced age.

One way to provide for health-related / medical emergencies is by taking health insurance. Health insurance offers considerable flexibility in terms of disease/ailment coverage. For instance, certain health insurance plans cover as many as 30 critical illnesses and over 80 surgical procedures. The insurance plan disburses the payment towards surgery/illness regardless of actual medical expenses. The policy continues even after the benefit payment on selected illnesses.

With health insurance, you are assured of a more secure future both health-wise and money-wise. This makes health insurance policies critical for individuals, especially if they are responsible for the financial well-being of the family.

image

Benefits of having a Health insurance Policy

Cashless Treatment : If you are insured, you can get cashless treatments as your insurance company would work in collaboration with various hospital networks.

 Pre and post hospitalization cost coverage : Insurance policy also covers pre and post-hospitalization charges up to the period of 60 days, depending on the insurance plans purchased.

 Transportation Charges : Insurance policy also covers the amount paid to ambulance towards the transportation of insured.

 No Claim Bonus (NCB) : This is the bonus element which is paid to the insured if the insured does not file a claim for any treatment in the previous year.

 Medical Checkup : Insurance policy also provide options for health checkups. Free health checkup is also provided by some insurers based on your previous NCBs.

 Room Rent : Insurance policy also covers room expenses depending on the premium being paid by the insured.

 Tax Benefit : Premium paid on Health insurance is tax-deductible under section 80D of the Income Tax Act.

Types of Personal Loans

Unsecured personal loans : this loan isn’t backed by collateral, such as your home or car, making them riskier for lenders. Approval and the rate you receive on an unsecured personal loan are mainly based on your credit score.

 Secured personal loans : These loans are backed by collateral, which can be seized by the lender if you default on the loan. Rates are typically lower than unsecured loans.

Fixed-rate loans- your rate and monthly payments stay the same for the life of the loan. Having a fixed rate makes it easier to budget, as you don’t have to worry about your payments changing

 Variable-rate loans : Interest rates on variable-rate loans are tied to a benchmark rate set by banks. A variable-rate loan can make sense if your loan carries a short repayment term, as rates may rise but are unlikely to surge in the short-term.

 Debt consolidation loans : This type of personal loan rolls multiple debts into a single new loan. Consolidating also simplifies your debt payments by combining all debts into one fixed, monthly payment.

 Co-sign loans : This loan is for borrowers with thin or no credit histories who may not qualify for a loan on their own. A co-signer promises to repay the loan if the borrower doesn’t, and acts as a form of insurance for the lender.

A personal line of credit- A personal line of credit works best when you need to borrow for ongoing expenses or emergencies, rather than a one-time expense.

 

image

Eligibility criteria

The general criteria include your age, occupation, income, capacity to repay the loan and place of residence. To avail of a personal loan, one must have a regular income source, whether you are a salaried individual, a self-employed business person or a professional. An individual's eligibility is also affected by the company he is employed with, his credit history, etc.

Kind of property : You can mortgage a self-occupied house as well as a rented residential property or it can be a piece of land that you own. However, it is necessary that the property is free from any kind of mortgage of litigation. Basically, the title of the property should be clear.

image

Advantages

Simple approval process : The process of approval for availing a LAP is comparatively simpler. Since these loans are secured, the scrutiny a loan application goes through is relatively lighter. This is opposed to unsecured business loans, where the risk factor is greater due to the absence of collateral. Hence the screening process for the latter is elaborate and time-consuming. In the fast-changing world of business, opportunities are short-lived. The relatively simpler and quicker loan approval process often proves crucial in allowing a business owner to take advantage of a market opportunity.

 Lower interest rates : Since LAP is a secured loan, the interest rates are generally lower, when compared to various other types of loans available in the market. For a borrower with a favorable credit score and borrowing history, the low-interest LAP can prove to be the instrument of choice for meeting a wide range of financing requirements.

Flexible repayment tenure : A LAP comes with flexible repayment tenure, lasting anything between 10-15 years or even 20 years in case the loan amount is high. This gives the borrower plenty of time to repay the amount and thus reducing any unnecessary financial burden on his venture.

Moreover, the borrower gets the option of repaying their debt through equated monthly installments, or as overdrafts. The borrower’s credit score and account history, along with the value of their property, determines the overdraft limit.

 Continuous ownership : In LAP the borrower continues to retain the ownership of the property. So, if the borrower is unable to repay the amount for any reason, they have the option to sell the property and settle the loan.

 Pre-closure : LAP comes with an option to pre-pay the loan amount without penalties, except if the loan was on a fixed interest. This means that the overall interest burden and the tenure of the loan can be reduced by paying a small additional cost.

 Optimum use of a property : Loan against property helps in unlocking the hidden value of a property. In case a borrower needs funds and he has a property to offer as collateral, he may consider leveraging the value of the property to satisfy his financial needs.

That way, the borrower can retain ownership of the property and can still secure a loan at a comparatively low rate of interest.

image

Eligibility

You are eligible if you are:

  •  An individual who is an Employee or a Professional, self-employed or an income tax assesses or NRIs
  •  Minimum net monthly income of Rs. 25000/-
  •  Loan under LAP should be liquidated before the eldest borrower attains the age of 70 years.

Who should file it?

If you are salaried, you need not pay advance tax as your employer deducts tax at source (TDS). However, you still need to file it if you have other sources of income, increasing your liability to more than Rs 10,000. Professionals (self-employed) and businessmen will have to pay taxes in advance as, given their business income, the liability can be huge. The same goes for companies and corporates.

image

When to file advance tax?

Advance tax or self-assessment taxes have to be paid on the 15th of September, December, and March, in installments of 30 percent, 30 percent, and 40 percent, respectively, for non-corporates. Corporates need to pay it on the 15th of June, September, December, and March. While employers deduct TDS on salaries, advance tax is paid on income that has not been subjected to TDS.

image

If you miss the deadline?

If you fail to pay your advance tax or the amount you pay is less than the mandated 30% of the total liability by the first deadline (September 25), you will be liable to pay interest on the amount, which comes to 1% simple interest per month on the defaulted amount for three months.
The same interest penalty would apply if you fail to pay the amount by the second deadline (December 15). Failing to pay the third and last installment (March 25) would mean paying 1% simple interest on the defaulted amount for every month until the tax is fully paid.

Functions of the ROC

The ROC takes care of the registration of a company (also referred to as incorporation of the company) in the country.

 It completes regulation and reporting of companies and their shareholders and directors and also administers government reporting of several matters which includes the annual filing of numerous documents.

 The Registrar of Companies plays an essential role in fostering and facilitating business culture.

 Every company in the country requires the approval of the ROC to come into existence. The ROC provides an incorporation certificate which is the conclusive evidence of the existence of any company. A company, once incorporated, cannot cease unless the name of the company is struck-off from the register of companies.

 Among other functions, it is worthy to note that the Registrar of Companies could also ask for supplementary information from any company. It could search its premises and seize the books of accounts with the prior approval of the court.

Most importantly, the Registrar of Companies could also file a petition for winding up of a company.

How companies are registered by the Registrar of Companies

No company can come into existence by itself. It requires a certificate of incorporation issued by the Registrar of Companies after the finalization of several statutory requirements. As part of the statutory process, the promoters need to submit several documents to the Registrar of Companies. These documents include Memorandum of Association (MoA), Articles of Association (AoA), the pre-incorporation agreement for appointing directors/ managing directors and the declaration by an authorized person confirming that requirements relating to registration have been adhered to.

After authenticating the documents, the ROC inputs the company’s name in the register of companies and releases the certificate of incorporation. The Registrar together with the certificate of incorporation also issues a certificate of commencement of business. A public limited company is required to get this certificate prior to commencing business.

ROC can refuse to register

ROC can refuse to register a company on various grounds. The Memorandum of Association (MOA) which is filled with the registrar comprises five clauses viz. name clause; objects clause; registered office clause; capital clause and liability clause. The registrar needs to ensure that no registration is allowed for companies having an objectionable name. The registrar could also decline to register any company which has unlawful objectives.

The role of ROC continues even after the registration of a company

There is no end to the association of the ROC and a company. For instance, a company might require changing its name, objectives or registered office. In every such instance, a company would have to intimate the ROC after completion of the formalities.

Filling resolutions with the Registrar of Companies

As per the provisions contained in section 117 of the Companies Act, every resolution is required to be filed with the ROC within 30 days of being passed. The Registrar of Companies needs to record all such resolutions. The Company law has also laid down the penalty in case of failure to file the resolutions with the registrar within the stipulated time. In other words, a company is required to intimate the Registrar of Companies concerning all of its activities which includes appointing directors or managing directors, issuing prospectus, appointing sole-selling agents, or the resolution regarding voluntary winding up, etc.

The requirements for an Income Tax audit are included under section 44AB of the Income Tax Act of 1961. The Income Tax audit is an analysis of a person or company’s tax returns by any outside company to confirm that all the income, expense and reduction information is filed correctly. Tax audits have been made compulsory by the Income Tax Act that states that all taxpayers are expected to get the accounts of their company or organization audited according to the provision of the act.

Under section 44AB, the audit aims to determine the actual veracity of returns filed and the completion of other conditions as per relevant rules. The Chartered Accountant doing the tax audit has to relinquish all his/her findings and views in the form of an audit report. The audit report is given as per format open in the form numbers 3CA/3CB and 3CD

Fulfilling statutory compliances

Individuals and entities who are required to get their accounts audited have to file their income tax return compulsorily using a digital signature. Furthermore, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs has made it mandatory for companies to file all reports, applications, and forms using a digital signature only.

 Under GST also, a company can get registered only by verifying the GST application through a digital signature. The use of a digital signature is necessary even for filing all applications, amendments and other related forms.

The objectives of the Tax Audit are as follows:

The Controller of Certifying Authority to issue digital signatures in India has authorized eMudhra as one of the certifying authority for issuance of Digital Signature Certificate.
 Other certifying authorities may include (n) Code Solutions, National Informatics Centre, Safescrypt and Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology.

Classes of DSC

  • A conventional system of tax audit would assure that all the companies manage the books of accounts and all other resources/expense records properly.

 

  •  A proper tax audit would also guarantee that the whole income and the requirements for reduction are precisely and correctly entered by the businessmen.

 

  •  A tax audit reduces the chance of dishonest practices.
  • Tax audit promotes the administration of tax laws by a proper presentation of accounts before tax professionals and saves the time of charging officers engaged in carrying out routine verifications.

 

  • Tax Audit applies to several types of people which are defined under Section 44AB of the IT Act.

 

  • Thus, as per the laws of Section 44AB of the Income Tax Act, 1961, following is the list which describes the classes of people who have to urgently follow the income tax audit schemes and get their accounts audited:

 

  •  An individual who is involved in business and the year-end turnover of his/her business is Rs.1 crore and above.

 

  •  An individual, who is a licensed, i.e. engaged in any profession and his income declarations in a year total Rs.50 lakhs and above.
  • An individual who fits for the presumptive taxation scheme under Section 44AD but later challenges that the profits for said business is lower than the values calculated per the possible taxation scheme. This is also suitable in case the income on record is more than the amount which is tax-free or not answerable for taxation.
  • If the assesse who is qualified under the presumptive taxation scheme but opts out of it after a specified period, he would lose the ability to revert to the presumptive taxation scheme for a continuous term of 5 assessment years after the decision to opt out is taken.

 

  •  An individual who fits to choose the presumptive taxation scheme of selection under Section 44AE but then claims that the profits for such business are lower than the profits calculated following the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AE.

 

  •  An individual who qualifies to choose the presumptive taxation scheme of selection under Section 44BBB but then claims that the profits for such business are lower than the profits calculated following the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44BBB.

 

  • The tax audit reports carried by a registered chartered accountant are to be presented in a designated format. Under section 44AB of the IT Act, the form that is appointed for the audit report is Form No. 3CB and the appointed particulars are to be reported in the Form No. 3CD.
  • In some cases when a person wishes to get their accounts audited under any law other than 44AB, then the form prescribed for audit report is Form No. 3CA and the prescribed particulars are to be reported in the Form No. 3CD.
image

Penalty

 

  • According to the section 271B, if a person who is expected to comply with the section 44AB fails to get their records audited in any given year, the following penalties are imposed on that person:

 

         • 0.5% of the total sales in case of a trade organisation or 0.5% of the total receipts                in  case of service of the current financial year.

          • The business may be fined with an amount of Rs.1,50,000.

  • However, according to the section 273B, no penalty would be imposed on the person if valid reason for such failure is proved.

 

  • Thus, tax audit is a very important requirement for individuals who are required to undergo such an audit. Failure to comply with the income tax rules would attract penalty and individuals wishing to avoid any penalty should ensure full compliance with all the rules of the income tax audit.

Introduction

The concept of TDS was introduced with an aim to collect tax from the very source of income. As per this concept, a person (deductor) who is liable to make payment of specified nature to any other person (deductee) shall deduct tax at source and remit the same into the account of the Central Government. The deductee from whose income tax has been deducted at source would be entitled to get credit of the amount so deducted on the basis of Form 26AS or TDS certificate issued by the deductor.

image

Advantages of TDS

  • TDS is deducted when you start earning and is dependent on the amount you earn. Besides, TDS benefits both the Government and the Tax payers. Following are the advantages of TDS.

 

  •  TDS reduces the chances of tax evasion (avoidance) as the tax is collected at source.

 

  •  It is one of the steadiest sources of revenue for the government.

 

  •  The tax collection base is widened as most of the people have to pay TDS in some or the other form.
  •  It is convenient for the individuals as the tax gets deducted automatically.
image

TDS Refund

The TDS is that tax which is deducted at source i.e. from an individual’s salary before it gets credited to employee’s account. It is usually done by a pre-determined deductor. Otherwise, generally, TDS is deducted each month by employers based on tax projections declared by the employee at the beginning of each financial year. The TDS taxes are collected under the Income Tax Act, 1961 and is managed by the Central Board for Direct Taxes (CBDT). It falls under the part of Department of Revenue and is therefore managed by Indian Revenue Services (IRS). It is also vital at the time of conducting an audit.

  • Also, TDS is becoming significant in the following ways.
  •  Taxes are collected regularly and are a continuous mode of income for the government.
  •  In addition to the above, it benefits the payer too. As the tax which is distributed throughout the year and is deducted every month, causes less tax burden at the end of the year.
  •  Therefore, this process is crafted in such a way that the government is able to collect taxes without the help of the Income Tax department and without their intervention.

Signs of a Trademark

  • To indicate that a trademark has been claimed companies use one of three symbols:
  • Using the trademark symbol after a logo or phrase alerts competitors that you have claimed this symbol or phrase as your own, but you don’t have to have even formally apply for it.
     
  •   Only trademarks that have been officially granted by the Trademark office can use the ® symbol, which stands for registered trademark.
  •  Companies that sell services, not products, have the option to use the service mark logo, but most use the ™ instead for simplicity.
image

Benefits of Registration

  • Once a trademark has been granted, the owner receives three key benefits:
  •  A notice of claim to any other businesses thinking of using the same symbol or word as its trademark
  •  A legal presumption of ownership, which can help fend off would-be users
  •  The exclusive right to use the claimed trademark

Importance of the Balance Sheet

Digital Signature Certificates help authenticate the personal information details of the individual holder when conducting business online.

 Reduced cost and time : Instead of signing the hard copy documents physically and scanning them to send them via e-mail, you can digitally sign the PDF files and send them much more quickly. The Digital Signature certificate holder does not have to be physically present to conduct or authorize a business
 

 Data integrity : Documents that are signed digitally cannot be altered or edited after signing, which makes the data safe and secure. The government agencies often ask for these certificates to cross-check and verify the business transaction.

 Authenticity of documents : Digitally signed documents give confidence to the receiver to be assured of the signer’s authenticity. They can take action based on such documents without getting worried about the documents being forged.

image

Fulfilling statutory compliances

The balance sheet is a very important financial statement for many reasons. It can be looked at on its own, and in conjunction with other statements like the income statement and cash flow statement to get a full picture of a company’s health. 4 important takeaways include :

 Liquidity : Comparing a company’s current assets to its current liabilities provides a picture of liquidity. Current assets should be greater than current liabilities so the company can cover its short-term obligations. The Current Ratio and Quick Ratio are examples of liquidity financial metrics.

 Leverage : Looking at how a company is financed indicates how much leverage it has, which in turn indicates how much financial risk the company is taking. Comparing debt to equity and debt to total capital are common ways of assessing leverage on the balance sheet.


fficiency : By using the income statement in connection with the balance sheet it’s possible to assess how efficiently a company uses its assets. For example, dividing revenue into fixed assets produces the Asset Turnover Ratio to indicate how efficiently the company turns assets into revenue. Additionally, the working capital cycle shows how well a company manages its cash in the short term.

 Rates of Return : The balance sheet can be used to evaluate how well a company generates returns. For example, dividing net income into shareholders’ equity produces Return on Equity (ROE), and dividing net income into total assets produces Return on Assets (ROA), and dividing net income into debt plus equity results in Return on Invested Capital (ROIC).

Types of balance sheet

There are several balance sheet formats available. The more common is the classified, common size, comparative, and vertical balance sheets. They are explained as follows:

 Classified balance sheet : This format presents information about an entity's assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity that is aggregated (or "classified") into subcategories of accounts. It is the most common type of balance sheet presentation and does a good job of consolidating a large number of individual accounts into a format that is eminently readable. Accountants should present balance sheet information in the same classification structure over multiple periods, to make the information in the periods more comparable.
Common size balance sheet : This format presents not only the standard information contained in a balance sheet but also a column that notes the same information as a percentage of the total assets (for asset line items) or as a percentage of total liabilities and shareholders' equity (for liability or shareholders' equity line items). It is useful for constructing trend lines to examine the relative changes in the size of different accounts.

 Comparative balance sheet : This format presents side-by-side information about an entity's assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity as of multiple points in time. For example, a comparative balance sheet could present the balance sheet as of the end of each year for the past three years. It is useful for highlighting changes over time.

 Vertical balance sheet : This format is one in which the balance sheet presentation format is a single column of numbers, beginning with asset line items, followed by liability line items, and ending with shareholders' equity line items. Within each of these categories, line items are presented in decreasing order of liquidity.

Key Takeaways

  • The P&L statement is a financial statement that summarizes the revenues, costs, and expenses incurred during a specified period.

 

  •  The P&L statement is one of three financial statements every public company issues quarterly and annually, along with the balance sheet and the cash flow statement.

 

  •  It is important to compare P&L statements from different accounting periods, as the changes in revenues, operating costs, R&D spending, and net earnings over time are more meaningful than the numbers themselves.
  •  Together with the balance sheet and cash flow statement, the P&L statement provides an in-depth look at a company's financial performance.

Advantages of Profit And Loss Account

Main benefits or advantages of profit and loss account can be expressed as follows:

 Helps to Track Net Profit or Net Loss : One of the major benefits of preparing a profit and loss account is to track business performance in terms of net profit or a net loss. Net profit or net loss for a certain period can be obtained with the help of a profit and loss account.

 Helps to Track Indirect Expenses : Indirect expenses of the business of a particular accounting period can be tracked and measured with the help of information provided in the profit and loss account.

Helps to Determine the Net Profit Ratio : Profit and loss account determines the net profit of the business for a particular period. So, it helps to obtain the net profit ratio (ratio between net profit and sales). It can be determined by using the following formula :
Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit / Net Sales

 Helps To Control Indirect Expenses : The profit and loss account provides data regarding the different indirect expenses of the business firm. It helps to control and minimize excess expenses to improve the profitability of the firm.

 Helps in Decision Making : Profit and loss account provides detailed information about, net profit, net loss and indirect expenses of the business which helps to compare the current profitability position with the profitability position of the previous period. So, it helps to predict future performance, makes plans and makes better decisions.

Two Categories of Profit and Loss Accounts

It consists of two main categories: "revenue and gains" and "expenses and losses." By subtracting the expenses and losses from the revenues and gains, you have one indicator of a company's financial health during the period in question.

Revenues
Within the "revenue and gains" category, the first figure needed to complete a profit and loss statement is the amount of revenue the company generated during the period in question. For a retailer or manufacturer, for example, primary revenues may be the income generated from sales of the product or service. A revenue figure is a raw number, meaning it reflects total sales without regard to any expenses incurred as part of the sale. Secondary revenues may also apply in the event the business earned income by interest on cash in the bank or rents. Secondary revenue includes income earned from activities apart from selling services or merchandise.

Gains
Gains made by the company during the period in question are also reported under the "revenue and gains" section of the profit-and-loss statement. A gain occurs when the company sells an asset for more than the book value. When a company wins a lawsuit and receives a monetary settlement, this can also be considered again.

Expenses
Expenses are part of the second category, "expenses and losses," on a profit-and-loss statement. Expenses include anything involved in the cost of selling the service or product. Within the expense category, you will typically find the cost of goods sold, supplies and equipment, wages and commissions and other direct costs of selling the product or service. Common expenses that fall within these subcategories include office supplies, office or equipment rental payments, goods purchased to produce the product, along with employee salaries or wages.

Losses
Losses make up the other half of the "expenses and losses" category on a profit-and-loss statement. Losses can be thought of as the converse of gains. If a company sells an asset for less than the book value, the deficit is reported as a loss. Likewise, if a company loses a lawsuit and is required to pay out a monetary judgment, then the judgment amount is reported on the profit-and-loss statement as a loss.
