1. Clause 44 as per the Revised Format is not available in this excel sheet. It is on Break up of total expenditure of entities registered or not registered under the GST. So this form is incomplete by that extent.
2. It is a very nice of the provider of this Form to have sheets for details of various clauses. However, we are not able to insert further rows or columns. So wherever the Rows or Columns already given and inbuilt are inadequate, its not possible to write further details.
These two basic points compel me not to use the form. With due regards and respect to all concerned I appreciate the efforts already put by the provider of this Form.
the cluase 44 has been deferred.
generally inserting rows/column is enabled. but if you have encountered problem in a particular sheet, let us know.
