Payment to Director, Income Tax

[sanjay misra]

Dear Sir

Whether any advance can be paid to Directors against remuneration and can be adjusted against remuneration due in subsequent month. At the end of the year all payments has been adjusted against remuneration.

As per income tax authority there should not be any debit balance on any day in directors account in a financial year.

Thanks

Sanjay

Dear sanjay,

Dear Sanjay,

Payment of Advance to director would tantamount to Loan to Director and may lead to default under Section 295.

Further from the Income Tax point of view default may be under 2(22)(e), deemed dividend.
