Hello Vijay,
There is no hard rules that you can not use Payment/Receipts as “Contra ” Though some CAs who are sill living in 90s believes that Contra can’t be used for Payment or Receipt!
I do never use Contra voucher and I use Cash/bank inter transaction only in Receipts and payment vouchers Also. Recently during audit, our CA had asked me the same point that why I don’t use Contra for inter cash/bank transaction.
I simply told him that just give me the Rules if it is compulsory to use Contra for interbank/cash transactions!
So, go ahead with contra in receipt/payments
Further, I will advice you to upgrade your software to Release 3.0 as cheque printing is more easy there. Remember it is free for you As your TNS is active
