FAQ
Do I need a revenue stamp on cash receipts?
Yes — Schedule I, Article 53 of the Indian Stamp Act: cash receipts above ₹5,000 must be stamped with a ₹1 revenue stamp. UPI / bank transfer receipts do not need a revenue stamp.
Are cash transactions above ₹2 lakh allowed?
No — Section 269ST of the Income Tax Act prohibits receiving ₹2 lakh or more in cash from a single person in a day or for a single transaction. Penalty under Section 271DA is equal to the amount received.
Is a numbered receipt mandatory?
Best practice. For GST-registered suppliers, advances received against future supply must be receipted and reported in GSTR-1. Keep a continuous serial — gaps trigger questions during audit.
