when certificate was not required
2013 edition
When certificate was required
Quote
“…there may be practical difficulties in
verifying of payments made through
crossed cheques or bank drafts. If no
proper evidence for such verification of
the payment by crossed cheque of draft
is available, such a fact could be brought
out by appropriate comments in the
following manner:
It is not possible for me/us to verify
whether the payments in excess of
Rs. 20000/- have been made
otherwise than by crossed cheque or
bank draft, as the necessary evidence
is not in the possession of the
assessee…”
Unquote
• Since after obtaining certificate
from assessee such disclaimer
was no more required, thus
• ICAI withdrew the observations
and guidance note from 2005
edition
The observation and the
guidance note of the 2005 edition
should be followed in view of
revised clause.
08/09/2014 DK BHOLUSARIA
The assessee has not made any payment for expenses
incurred covered by section 40A(3) read with Rule 6DD in
excess of sums exceeding Rs. 20000/- or Rs. 35000/-, as
the case may be, in cash, except as mentioned in Form
3CD.Though as per our examination of the books of account
and relevant record such payments have been made by
cheques or bank drafts, yet it could not be verified by us
conclusively as to whether all such payments were made by
account payee cheques or account payee bank drafts, as it
is not practically possible, since there are no satisfactory
evidence or material with the assessee for such verification
except bank statements.

Clause 34(a) – TDS/TCS compliance statement
In 2009 Government had made unsuccessful attempt to bring in form 24C – TDS compliance statement through notification no. 31/2009 dated 25th March 2009 read with circular no. 02/2009.
This statement is exact copy of form 24C (except 1 field)
This is the very statement which all TDS AO invariably demands during proceedings u/s 201 {TDS Survey}
It’s a more or less reconciliation of your PL with your TDS/TCS returns.
If assessee is not covered by TDS/TCS provisions at all – No need to jump into this clause.

Suggested disclaimer on clause 34(a)
In column (4) of Clause 34(a) of Form No. 3CD "total
amount of payments of the nature specified in column (3)"
has been mentioned to the extent it was possible; out of
which the aggregate "amount on which tax was not required
to be deducted" in view of any exemption / deduction
allowable under the respective section or the payment being
below the threshold provided or the assessee has obtained
Permanent Account Numbers (PAN) of the payee u/s
194C(6) etc., as the case may be, has been reduced to
derive the amount on which tax was required to be deducted
for reporting in column (5) of Clause 34(a) of the Form No.
3CD.
Clause 34(a) – Suggested disclaimer # 1
08/09/2014 DK BHOLUSARIA
Though the assessee has made available the books of account,
necessary records and relevant documents for the purpose of our
examination for reporting the particulars in Clause 34(a) of Form
No. 3CD, however, keeping in view the scope of section 194C of
the Income Tax Act,1961 and considering the volume of payments
covered in section194C it is not possible to prepare and compile
the "total amount of payment of the nature specified in column (3)".
It is not out of place to mention that on most of the payments made
for carrying out "work' in pursuance of "a contract" no tax is
required to be deducted in view of the threshold provided in sub-
section (5) and the provisions of sub-section (6) of section 194C.
Therefore, in column (4) of Form No. 3CD the aggregate amount
as declared in the quarterly statements of tax deducted at source
furnished in Form No. 26Q has been reported.

traded or manufactured or services rendered)

Clause 40 – Guidance note of ICAI
a) Gross Profit: The excess of the proceeds of goods sold and services
rendered during a period over their cost, before taking into account
administration, selling, distribution and financing expenses. When the
result of this computation is negative it is referred to as gross loss.
b) Turnover: The aggregate amount for which sales are effected or services
rendered by an enterprise. The terms gross turnover and net turnover (or
gross sales and net sales) are sometimes used to distinguish the sales
aggregate before and after deduction of returns and trade discounts.
c) Net Profit: The excess of revenue over expenses during a particular
accounting period. When the result of this computation is negative, it is
referred to as net loss. The net profit to be shown here is net profit before
tax.
d) The term `stock-in-trade' used therein does not include stores and spare
parts or loose tools. The term “stock-in-trade” would include only finished
goods and would not include the stock of raw material and work-in-
progress since the objective here is to compute the stock-turnover ratio
