  1. Facts

    Your bank statement shows every UPI and card receipt, and these feed into data the department can match with GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B. Sales must be recorded and taxed whether received in cash or UPI.

  2. Provisions and law

    • Sec 35, CGST Act 2017Accounts and records to be kept at the principal place of business
    • Sec 37, CGST Act 2017Details of outward supplies to be furnished in GSTR-1
    • Sec 31, CGST Act 2017Tax invoice must be issued for every taxable supply
  3. Analysis

    If your UPI receipts for the month are ₹9,00,000 and GSTR-1 shows sales of ₹6,00,000, you need an explanation, such as loans, transfers from your own account or advances. Keep a monthly bridge from bank receipts to reported sales. This is also the best defence if your turnover crosses a threshold you did not notice.

  4. Conclusion

    1. Total bank and UPI receipts for the month
    2. Remove non-sale receipts like loans and own transfers
    3. Compare with GSTR-1 sales
    4. Record and report any missed sales
