Debit note when buyer extra pay

Nagaur. Small coaching class near the stadium. They bought ten power banks from me for teachers.

I made a normal bill. They paid UPI same day. I thought file closed.

Next morning their peon came. Sir is saying packing was not in the rate. And I sent the carton by a local tempo. Tempo asked 800. Who will pay.

I had said rate is without packing. I forgot to write it on the bill. My fault in wording. Not in money. Extra was real.

I almost made a second invoice for 800. Same buyer. Same date. Felt wrong. Like I sold power banks two times.

Debit note when buyer extra pay, what actually happened

CA on phone. He said, extra on the same supply, you can raise a debit note. Not a fresh sale of ten more banks.

Debit note. Other side of credit note. I am asking more money. Buyer will pay extra. Original invoice stays.

I opened debit note draft. Draft paper. Not GSTN. Not a government debit note code. Shop record with DRAFT mark. I still do not file from this website.

Seller. My shop. GSTIN. Address Nagaur.

Buyer. Coaching class name. Their GSTIN they sent on WhatsApp. I typed carefully. One digit wrong and their accounts will throw the paper.

Original invoice number. I put it on top. This debit is for that bill. Freight and packing not charged earlier.

Lines. Packing tape and box. 200. Tempo to stadium road. 800. Total 1000. Wait. Tempo was 800. Packing 200. Yes 1000. First I wrote 800 only, then I remembered the box.

I almost mixed freight into a power bank line. Do not. Keep extra as extra. Clear words. Freight. Packing. Not "misc".

Rate of GST I did not invent. Original sale was a draft GST bill I had made on GST invoice draft. For this extra, I asked CA what to put. He told me how he wants it in books. I am not your CA. I only say, do not guess tax percent on a debit note at midnight.

On BillOnDesk I can write the extra amount and a note. DRAFT. Coaching sir paid 1000 next day. I wrote UPI on the note.

Why not a new invoice. Because a new invoice looks like a new supply. Stock of power banks would look sold twice if I am not careful in the notebook. Debit note says, same supply, money was short.

Why not just WhatsApp "send 800". Because later sir will forget. Peon will change. I will have no paper. Debit note print is a small fight saver.

I do not use debit note to hide a new sale. If they buy two more power banks, that is a new invoice. Different thing. Extra freight is debit. Extra piece is invoice.

This confusion I had for months. Same customer. Same week. Two papers. I label them in the notebook. INV. DN.

Number. DN-NGR-03. Prefix different from invoices. Invoice number helper with DN. I skip 00 because I start from 01 and I do not like 0001, too many zeros for my register.

Date of debit note is the day I raised it. Not the old sale date. Old date I mention in the reference line.

Buyer extra pay also happens when rate was typed short. I wrote 950 instead of 1050 for a phone. Customer already took GST draft. Difference 100. I called. I made debit note of 100. He laughed. Said shopkeeper mistake, still paid. Good man. Paper still made.

Some buyers refuse debit note. They say you quoted 950, I will not pay. Then it is a shop fight, not a paper fight. I cannot force a draft on them. I can only show the original quote if I had one. That day I had no quote. My loss. I learned to send quotation before bulk.

How I fill the debit note draft

Coaching class was bulk. I should have quoted with packing. I did not. Debit note saved the 1000. Quote would have saved the awkward morning.

I do not print Ashoka. I do not write official tax invoice on a debit note. I write debit note draft. If someone needs portal document, CA. Not me. Not this site.

I do not add hologram. Extra 1000 is not a cinema ticket.

If the buyer already claimed something on the original and now extra tax is involved, that is accounts talk. I send PDF. They forward to their CA. I do not fill their GSTR.

BillOnDesk is not GSTN. Footer on the site says draft. I like that. Keeps my mouth honest when customer asks is this government.

Peon asked for two copies. One for sir. One for me. Print twice. Or print once, photo for me. I did photo. Toner is not free in Nagaur photo studio.

When they paid, I wrote received on my copy. I could have made a payment receipt also. For 1000 I did receipt plus debit note. Maybe extra. I sleep better.

What if I take extra cash without paper. Then my drawer has 1000 and books do not. Festival time I will think it is profit. It is freight recovery. Paper keeps the name of the money.

A jewellery shop friend uses debit note when gold rate was billed low. Different world. My world is power banks and tempo.

I keep a folder. Debit notes. Thin folder. Only few in a year. Credit notes more, because returns. Debit notes when I undercharged or forgot freight.

If I overcharged, that is credit note, not debit. I said this to my helper three times. He still mixes the English words. I wrote on the wall. Extra from customer = debit. Money back to customer = credit.

Wall is in Hindi mix. Works.

Do not make debit note for a customer who never bought. That is a fake receivable. No.

Do not back date to close a quarter. No.

Do not put a phone IMEI on a freight debit note. Looks mad. I did that once copy paste from old bill. Sir called. What IMEI in tempo charge. I made a fresh draft. Copy paste is a trap.

Fill fresh. Original invoice number. Extra lines. Total. Note. Download.

If PDF blank, items empty. Fill the extra lines. Then download.

I told the coaching sir, next order I will put packing in the quote. He said okay. Next order I used quotation first, then invoice, then no debit note. Peace.

This article is only my Nagaur habit. Your CA may say different for your GST type. I am composition in some years, regular talk in others, I follow CA. The website is a draft printer.

Debit note when buyer extra pay. Short name for a long awkward. Paper makes it short.

I still remember the tempo wala waiting at the gate. 800 cash. I paid him. Then I recovered from sir with debit note. If I had no debit note, I would have eaten 800. That is a lot of covers.

So now, extra pay, extra paper. Debit note draft. Link the old bill. Write freight in clear English. Sign. Collect.

And I do not call it a second GST invoice. It is not.
