Questions

MSME payments check before 31 March (Section 43B(h)): questions

What is the 43B(h) rule?

If you owe a micro or small enterprise and haven't paid within the agreed time (no more than 45 days, or 15 days without a written agreement), and it is still unpaid on 31 March, the expense isn't deductible that year. It becomes deductible in the year you actually pay.

Does it apply to medium enterprises?

No. Only suppliers registered as micro or small. Traders registered on Udyam are treated differently in some cases; we check each supplier.
