When a receipt voucher is required under GST

A receipt voucher is the document Section 31(3)(d) requires when a registered supplier receives an advance for a supply before issuing the tax invoice. For goods, no GST is payable on the advance (Notification 66/2017) so the voucher simply records the money; for services, GST is payable at the time the advance is received and is shown on the voucher, then adjusted in the invoice. For ordinary payments against an existing invoice, the same document works as a plain payment receipt.

Rule 50 particulars

Supplier name, address, GSTIN; a serial number; date; payer details; description; amount; tax rate and amount if applicable; place of supply; and signature.

Refund voucher

If the supply is cancelled after an advance, issue a refund voucher under Section 31(3)(e) when returning the money.

Cash limits

Receipts of ₹2 lakh or more in cash from one person in a day are barred by Section 269ST; note the mode of payment.

Cheque realisation

A receipt for a cheque is conditional on realisation; the standard line on the voucher covers it.
