Section 62. Accounts

(1) Every dealer liable to pay tax under this Act, and every other dealer on whom a notice has been served to furnish returns under sub-section (2) of section 29 shall maintain at his place of business a true account of the value of goods purchased, sold, supplied and delivery of goods made by him in such form and in such manner as may be prescribed.

(2) If the Commissioner considers that such account is not sufficiently clear and intelligible to enable him to make a proper scrutiny of the returns referred to in section 29, he may require such dealer by notice in writing to keep such accounts (including records of purchases and sales) in such form and in such manner as may be specified therein.

(3) The Government may, direct any class of registered dealers generally to keep such accounts (including records of purchases and sales) in such manner as may be prescribed.
