Amendment in Section 43B
Section 43B : Deduction on Payment Basis.

“Notwithstanding anything contained in any other provision of this Act, a deduction otherwise allowable under this
Act in respect of –

(h) any sum payable by the assessee to a micro or small enterprise beyond the time limit specified in section
15 of MSME Act, 2006.

shall be allowed (irrespective of PY in which liability to pay such sum was incurred) only in

computing the income of that PY in which such sum is actually paid by him”

Provided that this clause is applicable even if we pay the amount said in “clause (h)” before due date
139(1). (Means need to pay on due date of payment of bill otherwise allowed on payment basis)

Section 15 of MSME Act, 2006 : Liability of buyer to make payment.

- Where any supplier supplies any goods or renders any services to any buyer,
- the buyer shall make payment therefor on or before the date agreed upon between him and the supplier in
writing OR,
- where there is no agreement in this behalf, before the appointed day (appointed day is 15 days where there
is no agreement):

Provided that in no case the period agreed upon between the supplier and the buyer in writing shall exceed 45 days
from the day of acceptance or the day of deemed acceptance.

Section 16 of MSME Act, 2006: Date from which and rate at which interest is payable.

- Where any buyer fails to make payment of the amount to the supplier, as required under section 15,
- the buyer shall, notwithstanding anything contained in any agreement between the buyer and the supplier or in
any law for the time being in force,
- be liable to pay compound interest with monthly rests to the supplier on that amount from the appointed day
or, as the case may be, from the date immediately following the date agreed upon, at three times of the bank

Author’s Note Regarding Above Amendment.
HOW TO CHECK THAT SELLER IS MICRO OR SMALL?
We must have UDYAM Registration Number of the seller. Go to this link
https://udyamregistration.gov.in/Udyam_Verify.aspx and check the current status of seller. You will find
current status of Seller whether he is MICRO/SMALL/MEDIUM. Save this status with us and if
Micro/Small sellers are there you need to follow above mentioned provision.

1. Changes Need to be done in Books of Account.

From current financial year 01-04-2023 to 31-03-2024 we need to bifurcate creditors in the following
groupings:

1. Creditors of micro enterprises and small enterprises

2. Creditors of other than micro enterprises and small enterprises

FOR ALL ASSESSEE:

From current financial year we need to check bill of each and every party and if they have written
UDHYAM no. on their bills then we need to change HEAD of such creditor account under "Creditors of
Micro Enterprises and Small Enterprises", Rest all creditors should be under “Creditors of other than
micro enterprises and small enterprises”.

We need to send letters to each and every creditor to find out whether they are registered under
Udhyam or not and all the new creditors. We must have evidence of enquiry with creditors (Mail, Post
etc.) because it is the duty of the company.

If once we get confirmation from the creditors that they are not registered and afterward the creditor got
himself registered under UDHYAM then it is his duty to convey such a thing to the company. New and
current creditors confirmation is the duty of the company.

2. Effect of Amendment in Section 43B(h):

As per the amendment in section 43B(h) buyer of Goods & Services need to make payment to their
MSME registered supplier on due date to claim expenses. Due date is as follows:

- IF written agreement between buyer & Supplier then Agreed days maximum 45 days
- IF no written agreement between buyer & Supplier then 15 days

If the buyer is not making payment to the MSME registered supplier within the due date as mentioned
above then expenses will not be allowed on a mercantile basis; it means that payment to the creditors
will be allowed as deduction in the year of payment.

3. Liability to Pay Interest:

Interest is payable @ THREE times the bank rate. Interest is payable after due date or 45 days Which
Ever is Earlier.

4. Example to Understand the provision.

A Ltd purchased goods on credit from B Ltd value Rs. 5,00,000/-. Invoice date – 25 Feb. 2023

Part Payment made on

Following Dates Allowed as Expenses in the Year

200000

2024-2025 (Int. Payable)**

3rd part – 10th April 2024 Rs 200000 2023-2024

**It means that is you fails to pay on due date then interest will payable and if not paid during the year then
resulted in disallowance in the year of expense as per section 43B(h).
Interest payable to the supplier is 3 times of the bank rate notified by the Reserve Bank compounding on monthly basis.
