Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

external (between a business entity and a second party, for example, goods sold on credit to Z) or internal (does not
involve second party, e.g., depreciation charged on machinery).

4. Capital: Capital is the amount invested by the proprietor or partner in the business. It may be in the form of
money or assets having money value. It is a liability of the business towards the proprietor of partner. It is so
because under” Business Entity Concept”, business is considered to be a separate and distinct entity from its
owners. Capital is also known as Owner‟s Equity or Net Worth. It is always equal to assets less liabilities.
This can be expressed as:
5. Drawings: it is the amount withdrawn or goods taken by the proprietor for this personal use. Goods so taken
by the proprietor for his personal use Drawings reduce the investment (or Capital) of the owners.
6. Liabilities: Liabilities mean the amount owed (Payable) by the business to outsiders and to the proprietors.
Various kinds of liabilities are:
(i) Internal Liability: Internal Liability is the amount owned by the business to the
proprietor of the business. It is so because under the Business Entity Concept,
transactions are recorded taking business to be an entity distinct and separate from its
owners.
(ii) External Liability: External Liability is a liability that is payable to outsiders, i.e.,
other than the proprietors. External liability arises because of credit transactions or
loans raised. Examples of external liabilities are creditors, bank overdraft, bills payable,
outstanding liabilities.
Liabilities can be further classified into:
(iii) Long-Term liabilities: Long-Term Liabilities are those liabilities which are payable
after a longer period, (more than a year). Examples of Long-Term Liabilities are Long-

7. Assets: Assets are property or legal rights owned by an individual or business to which money value can
attached. In other words, anything which will enable the firm to get cash or a benefit in the future is an asset.

“Assets are future economic benefits, the rights, which are owned or controlled by an organization or individual.”
--Finney and Miller
Capital=Assets-Liabilities

IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
“Assets are valuable resources owned by a business which are acquired at a measurable money cost”
--Prof. R.N. Anthony
What emerges from the above definitions is that an asset should have the following characteristics:
1. It should be owned (i.e., property) by an individual or an organization (business or non-business).

purpose to resell and earn profit, debtors exist to convert them into cash, i.e., receive the amount from
them, bills receivable exist again for receiving cash against it, etc.
Prepaid expenses are also classified as Current Assets although they can not be converted into cash .They
are so classified because benefit from such expenses when paid has not fully exhausted,i.e., it will be
available in the next accounting year also.

within a very short period. Examples of liquid assets are: cash, bills receivable and debtors, etc

An expense is charged (debited) to Profit and Loss Account.
Prepaid Expense: It is an expense that has been paid in advance and the benefit of which will be available in the
following year or years. For example, insurance premium of Rs. 10,000 has been paid for one year beginning 1st
October, 2010. The financial year ends on 31st
March, 2011. It means premium for six months, i.e., 1st
April, 2011 to
30th
September, 2011 amounting to Rs.5, 000 has been paid in advance. Thus, the amount of premium paid in advance
(Rs.5, 000) is prepaid expense. Similarly, if advance rent paid is to be adjusted over 3 years, advance rent relating to
following accounting years yet to be adjusted shall be prepaid expense. It is termed as outstanding Expense. It is
debited to the Profit and Loss Account and also shown under the head current Liabilities in the Balance Sheet.

000 is revenue and the difference, i.e., Rs.6,000 and is income. It can, therefore, be expressed as:
Income= Revenue-Expense

profit and net profit.
Gross Profit: Gross Profit is the difference between sales revenue for the proceeds of goods sold and/or

1.1 INTRODUCTION TO ACCOUNTING
1.1.1 What is Accounting?
Accounting, in simplest, is keeping track of our Income, Expenses, Assets and Liabilities.
This is true for business, for a household or for an individual.
In the case of a business Accounting can be defined as:
“… the art of systematic recording, classifying, summarizing in a significant manner and
in terms of money, transactions and events which are, in part at least, of financial
character, and interpreting the results thereof.”
From the above definition, we note the following features of accounting:
Only financial aspects are considered in Accounting. A financial transaction is one which
brings some change in the financial position of business. For example, we buy raw
material or sell our goods. Thereby, we spend money and earn money. These are financial
transactions.
But when we place an order to a supplier for a particular machinery, it does not alter the
financial position of the business. Thus, it is not a financial transaction and cannot be
included in Accounts Books.
The transactions are to be recorded primarily in some documents. Later they are to be
grouped and summarized. This leads to different steps in Accounts Compilation.
The process at different steps in the Compilation of Accounts should be performed on
some basic rules, which are common for all business organizations, be it Manufacturing,
Trading or the Service industry.
The entire organized, grouped and summarized data should reveal some information for
executives at different levels in the organization. We prepare reports of standard formats
for interpretation purposes.
1.1.2 Process of Financial Accounting System
The basic document used in the Financial Accounting System are:
Voucher Where transactions are entered first
Journal Where transactions are entered chronologically and denote which
accounts will be affected.
Ledger Where the transactions of particular accounts are segregated and balance
for each account
19. Tally Erp.9
19 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
Using the above documents, the main reports prepared in the Financial Accounting System
are stated below:
Trial balance:- It gives the consolidated list of various Accounts and their balances.
Brings out any error, procedural or airthmetical, in Journalising or posting ogf
transactions. This is the source point for preparing other reports.
Profit & loss report:- This statement is prepared to find the operating profit in the
business for a given period. The net profit is the basis of calculating the tax. The final net
profit will be transferred to the Balance Sheet. The P&L statement shows the efficiency of
performing operations in the business for given period.
Balance sheet:- The Balance sheet shows the financial status of the business as at a
particular date. The effectiveness of managing the business is depicted here.
The P&L Account and the Balance Sheet together form the basis for different analysis.
The results of such analysis will be used by different groups of people such as the Income
Tax Department, Banks for providing Working Capital Loans, existing and potential
investors for investing in the business, and so on.
1.2 DOUBLE ENTRY SYSTEM OF ACCOUNTING
1.2.1 What is Double Entry System of Book-Keeping?
Every financial transaction in an organization has two aspects. There will always be inflow
of cash or kind on one side and outflow on the other. For example, purchase material from
the supplier on credit. Our stocks of material increases. At the same time our liability
towards the supplier (which is outflow of cash) also increases.
The double entry system of Book-keeping allows us to keep track of both these aspects.
Thus, as per this system at least two accounts are affected when a transaction is recorded.
In the example above, the accounts affected are the Material Purchase account and the
supplier account.
Debit and Credit Entries in the Double Entry System
How do we account for the two sides of a transaction?
The respective accounts, which get changed by a transactions, get any of the two entries –
Debit or Credit. In other words, one account will be debited and the other account will be
credited.
Passing of the Debit and Credit entries is the basic, but crucial process in Accounting. Any
error in this process will have a ripple effect and will affect the final reports.
1.3 ACCOUNTS AND RULES FOR ACCOUNTING
1.3.1 Accounts Type:- Accounts can be any of four types:
Assets What the business owns and what is due to be business.
Liability What the business owes to other
Expense A source of expenditure for running the business pertaining to a
Period.
Income A source of earning money in the business pertaining to a
period.
Exercise : Identify the following types of Accounts :
Debentures Bank of India

1.3.2 Rules for recording Transactions
Classification of Accounts by the Nature of Account and the Golden rules of
Accounting:
1. Personal Account
All accounts which are in the name of any Individual, Firm or Company such as Ram
&Co., Shyam Gupta, Metro Transport, and so on.
Rule: Debit the receiver and
Credit the giver
2. Real Accounts
Accounts which relate to the Assets or liabilities of the business, such as Cash A/C,
Goods A/C, Furniture A/C, and so on.
Rule: Debit what comes in and
Credit what goes out
3. Revenue or Nominal Accounts
Accounts which relate to income or expense, such as Purchase, Sales, Interest received,
Salary & Wages, and so on.
Rule: Debit all expenses and
Credit all income
Let us suppose we have a transaction
“purchase of goods worth Rs. 7000/- on credit from Mahesh Traders”
What accounts will be affected by this transaction?
What accounts will be Debited and which will be credited?
To find answers for the above questions, take the help of some basic rules of recording
transactions. The rules are given below.
Account Type Debit Credit
Personal receiver Giver
Assets/liability/capital what comes in What goes out
(real) (in cash or kind) (in cash or kind)
Revenue (income and Expenses and losses Income or gains

Also Known as Nominal
Let us understand the rules with some examples. Consider the same transaction :
(i) Purchase of goods worth Rs. 7000/- on credit from Mahesh Traders
Accounts affected Purchase Mahesh Traders

1.4 ACCOUNTING COMPILATION & REPORTS
1.4.1 Basic steps in Account Compilations, documents used and reports
In this section, let us learn how to go through the different steps of Accounts compilation
and see what document is used and created/ updated at each stage.
The steps are as indicates below:
Step 1 Recording
Step 2 Classifying
Step 3 Summarizing
Step 4 Interpreting (by preparing reports)
The sequence is best represented in the flow diagram below:
22. Tally Erp.9
22 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
FIGURE-1
-Let us start with a payment transaction for example:
Paid cash Rs. 700 for local Conveyance
(i) Voucher or entry Document: The first document where the transaction is entered is called a
Voucher. A voucher can exist in the form of an Expenses Bill, Sales Bill, Receipt, Payment,
and so on.
(ii) Journal entry: The second step is the stage where we classify the transaction that is, to find
out which are the accountints to be debited or credited. The transaction is now entered in the
form of a journal entry in a book called a journal Proper. A paper journal entry has a typical
format. Given below is the journal entry for the cash payment transaction above:
25.04.2012 Electricity Charges Dr. 1000
To cash A/c 1000
The process of passing a journal entry such as the one above is based on the rules for
recording transactions, discussed in the earlier section.
(iii) Ledger Posting and Balancing: Ledger posting and balancing is done to findout the
payment receipt, income or expenses through any Account.
For example, in the Cash A/c the Electricity Charges are posted to the Debit side of
Electricity
Charges Ledger and the Cash A/c Credited.
Thus the process of posting is transfer of individual transaction amounts from the journal to
the debit or credit side in a given Account.
A simple Cash Account is shown in next page with posting entries.

From the above we see that the total of payment (credit total, omitting the last entry) is different from
the total of receipts on the left side. But in the manual system the total of both sides are matched. To
get them matched, a new entry is passed on the right side (if the debit Total is more than the credit
total) or on the debit side (if the debit total is less than the credit side). This new entry is known as
balancing entry and it will have the difference between the totals in the amount column. In the above
cash account, the balancing entry is “By Balance Carried Forward” and the balance amount is 4400.
This is the actual cash availability as at the end of March 2002. In other words, it is the closing
balance as on March 31,2002. The ledger accounts are usually posted every month.
(iv) Consolidating in Trial Balance : Once we get the closing balance of all accounts for the last
month of the fiscal year (March), we are ready to prepare the reports. But first we get the
consolidated list of such balances. The list is called the Trial Balance. The Trial Balance has
three columns, namely Account Name, Debit Column and Credit Column. When an account
appears in the debit column, otherwise in the credit column. A sample Trial Balance is
shown below:

The Trial Balance is a source for preparing the reports. As per double entry system, every transaction
has debit and credit entries of equal sum in different accounts. Hence, the total of debit balances and
credit balances should be equal in the trial balance. Preparation of these consolidated reports reveals
any manual or procedural errors in the earlier steps of accounts compilation.
There is one more input require before we go for preparing the P&L report and the balance sheet.
That is the closing entry. Closing entry is given for stock value at the end of the year.
Closing stock is the value of stock available at the end of the year. The closing stock can be valued
by any method such as LIFO, FIFO, Weighted Average and Moving Average.
The value of stock is shown as a current assets in the Balance sheet.
The closing stock of finished goods is treated as an income in the Profit & Loss (P&L) statement.
1.5 PREPARING FINAL REPORTS
1.5.1 Profit & Loss Statement: This report depicts the operating profit/ loss for given period. In
many organizations, this report is prepared in two steps – trading Account and P&L Account.
The trading account is a list of all direct production – related expenses on one side and the
direct source of income (usually income through sales and services) on the other side . The
difference between their total is the Gross Profit or Gross Loss. Given below is a sample
Trading Account showing the balances in the Trial balance above.
The closing stock of Finished goods is assumed as Rs. 25000 and the depreciation for the year
is assumed as Rs. 37000.

1.6 USE OF DAY BOOKS IN ACCOUNTING
We learnt that all the transactions are entered from vouchers to the journal in a chronological
order. Using this method, the journal becomes a voluminous book and extracting entries for
posting in Ledger becomes a time-consuming job. Moreover, the debit and credit entries are
written in the journal and ledger. This is a duplication of effort.
To avoid these disadvantages, the day books are used. Day books are specialized books,
where transactions relating to a particular type, say Sales or Purchase, are entered directly
from the voucher. They are not written into the journal. At intervals, say every month, the
totals from these books are carried forward and used for posting in the Ledger. When the
ledger is posted from the day books, there is only one entry written.
Thereby, we can get the details such as total sales or total purchase at a glance from the
ledger. If we want to know the details, we have to refer to the Day books using a reference
number usually the folio number of the respective Day book. These books are also called
Books of Original Entry.
1.7 ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ACCOUNTS PAYABLE
Accounts receivable, also known as Bills Receivable, gives he details of the dues from the
Customers. The details are maintained in a sub-ledger (called Debtors Ledger or Sundry
Debtors). As the sum due from customers is our money blocked, we have to monitor the
receivable closely. This also helps us keep a watch on our customers‟ credit worthiness and
reliability. Many statements are prepared to monitor the Accounts receivable. Some of them
are Analysis Statement, Ageing analysis Statement, Business summary (month-wise or item-
wise) and so on.
Account payable, also known as Bills Payable, gives details of yours dues to suppliers. The
details are maintained in a sub ledger (called Creditors Ledger of Sundry Creditors). A close
monitoring of Accounts payable is also essential, because it helps us in our cash flow
27. Tally Erp.9
27 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
planning and knowing the cash requirement at any time. Further, our credit worthiness
towards our suppliers is also enhanced, which is again important.
1.8 BANK RECONCILIATION STATEMENT
When we maintain a bank account, we prepare a bank book. The bank gives us one book,
which is called the pass book. The entries in the bank book are made by us. The Pass book
entries are made by the bank authorities.
At any point of time, the final balance shown as per the Bank and the Pass book should be the
same. But most of the times it will not be so. This happen because of the following reasons :
When we make a cheque payment, we make the Bank book posting immediately, whereas
our account will be adjusted only when the cheque is presented and honoured.
When we deposit a cheque from the cutomer, we post the same in our bank book. But our
account with the bank is actually adjusted only when the amount is realized.
For any outstation cheque receipts or for overdrafts, the bank will deduct the service charges.
This will be automatically debited to our account. But we will get the statement only after
some time.
But to be sure that everything goes fine and no errors are committed, a statement is regularly
prepared. This statement is called the Bank Reconciliation Statement.
Suppose we have the following entries in our Bank Book and Pass Book for one month
ending 30.9.02

Simplified Installation Process
Tally.ERP 9 comes with a new enhanced installer, which allows the user to configure different settings from
a single screen, as per requirements.
New Tally.ERP 9 Installer
The new installer allows the user to install Tally.ERP 9 application as well as License Server, however you
may choose to install either of them one after the other.
Using the new Installer, the user can install Tally.ERP 9 and License Server separately on different
Computers/folders or same folder.
43. Tally Erp.9
43 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
While installing Tally.ERP 9, the user can specify the path for Application, Data, Configuration
and Language files to be stored.
While Installing Tally.ERP 9 on the Client machine in a multiuser environment, the user is required
to provide the Computer Name / IP Address and Port Number of the computer, where the License
Server is installed & running.
Uninstaller:
The Uninstaller wizard similar to the Installer, also provides flexibility to uninstall either Tally.ERP 9
application or License Server separately or both together. If only License Server is uninstalled, then
Tally.ERP 9 will switch to Education mode on the Client Computer.
Tally Admin Tool
The TallyAdmin tool is a new component that has been introduced with Tally.ERP 9 which enables the
user to perform the following activities without starting Tally.ERP 9
Initiate License Service operations.
Display the active Tally.ERP 9 License Servers in a LAN.
Administer Site License for different products from Tally.ERP 9.
Check network connections between the computers designated as Client and Server.
Convert TCP and TSF files of Tally 9 to the format compatible with Tally.ERP 9.
The Tally Admin Tool is available in the Tally.ERP 9 application folder, on installation.
Introduction to TDL Server DLL Component
Tally.ERP 9 onwards, a new component TDLServer.DLL has been introduced, which gets copied to the
folder in which Tally.ERP 9 has been installed. All the default TDL files of Tally have been integrated in
this component. On invoking Tally.ERP 9, these TDL�s will be loaded. The user TDL�s will be
subsequently loaded as usual from Tally.ini.
The componentization will result in a more robust application. The benefits of this componentization are as
follows-
In case of any updates/ changes in TDL, only TDLServer.dll file needs to be downloaded and not the
entire Tally application which enables faster downloads.
44. Tally Erp.9
44 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
This will help in dynamic loading and unloading of TDL Files while Tally application is running
Forthcoming Tally Developer will be directly using this component, thus eliminating the need for a
separate DefTDL.dat file.
Unified File Format for Tally.ERP 9
The Tally.ERP 9 application folder contains files other than the data files. These are referred to as secondary
files. From this release onwards the file format of all the secondary files have been standardized.
TCP Files
All the TDL files which were compiled for previous versions of Tally as .tcp have to be converted to a new
format. Mentioned below are the ways in which this can be done.
Note: The TDL files in txt format does not require this conversion.
Conversion of Tally 7.2 tcp files to Tally.ERP 9 Format
Tally7.2 tcp files can be migrated to Tally.ERP 9 format using the Tally72Migration tool available in the
Tally.ERP 9 folder. Migration process is the same as earlier.
Conversion of Tally 9 tcp files to Tally.ERP 9 Format
Automatic Conversion Process: When Tally.ERP 9 is installed in the existing Tally 9 folder then
all the files with .tcp extension included in the �tally.ini� file are automatically converted to the
Tally.ERP 9 compatible format. The original �.tcp� file is renamed as �<filename>.tcp.BAK�.
The name of the file which is converted to new format is same as the original filename. The original
TCP file is retained as a backup file.
Manual Conversion Process: To manually convert the files in the new format use the Conversion
tab of Tally Admin Tool.
It is mandatory to specify the File Type. The file Type can be TSF or TCP.
TSF: Converts tally configuration file from old format to new format e.g. tallysav.tsf to tallycfg.tsf
TCP: Converts TCP file from old format to new format.
In the Source File box specify the name of file to be converted.
In Destination File box provide the name for the converted file.
Note: Start Tally.ERP 9 and check the status of your TDL file. [Go to Gateway of Tally, click
F12:Configuration > Functions and Features] If the status is Active, then the tdl is compatible to
Tally.ERP 9 format. If the status is Error, then scroll down to the line and press enter to know the details.
Then make the TDL syntactically compatible as per the Tally.ERP 9 standards.
Configuration File
Manually the file �Tallysav.tsf� can be converted to the new standardized format by selecting �TSF�
as the file type in the Conversion tab of Tally Admin Tool. Ensure that the destination file name is
�Tallycfg.tsf�
Licensing in Tally.ERP 9
Tally.ERP 9 launches a new Licensing mechanism which is simple, user-friendly and addresses all the
licensing activities from a single screen for users across segments of business. Besides, allowing activation
of Single User (Silver) and Multi User (Gold) license, it also extends the feature to Multi-Site Licensing.
The salient features of Licensing are:
License Activation is simple and easy two step process.
Introducing the concept of an Account for better management & administration of Licenses through
the Control Centre.
Provide your Account ID and Password to reactivate license
The flexibility and compatibility to centrally manage multiple licenses across locations in a secured
environment
Removes all licensing data from your computer for a particular instance of license.
Site Licensing
A new concept of Site Licensing is introduced from Tally.ERP 9. A site refers to activation of Tally.ERP 9
Single or Multi User license. The site licensing is broadly classified into two categories namely Single Site
and Multi-Site.
45. Tally Erp.9
45 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
Single Site: A single instance of Tally.ERP 9 Silver or Gold license is active at a time under an
Account.
Multi Site: Is more than one active Tally.ERP 9 Silver or Gold licenses on different machines
under a single account comprising of same or different Serial numbers.
Advantages:
Centrally configure Sites / License across locations.
An Account is created using your E-Mail ID provided in the activation form.
All the serial numbers are assigned to the Account.
User can split an Account or merge two or more Accounts.
The Account information is accessible using the Account ID and Password.
Licensing Mechanism
Provide the required details and your E-Mail ID in the activation form.
On processing the request an encrypted (not in readable format) license file is generated and needs to
be decrypted using a set of character and numbers called key.
Control Centre
Control Centre is a new feature being introduced with Tally.ERP 9. This utilises Tally.NET as an interface
between the end user and Tally.ERP 9 installed at different locations. With the help of Control Centre, you
will able to:
Create users with predefined Security levels
Centrally Configure & manage your Tally.ERP 9
Surrender, Confirm or Reject activation of a Site
Maintain Account related information
Following are brief descriptions of the features of the Control Center:
Create users with predefined Security levels
Using the Control Centre feature, the Account Administrator can create users and map them to a predefined
security level and authorise them to access a Site/Location linked to that Account. Further, the system
administrator can also create Remote users (Tally.NET Users & Tally.NET Auditors) and allow / disallow
them to remotely access the data.
The predefined security levels in Tally.ERP 9 are:
Owner - This security level refers to the ownership for the complete Account. The Owner can create
Standard Users or Owners with required permissions.
Standard User - Created by the Owner with required permissions.
Centrally Configure and manage your Tally.ERP 9
The Control Centre provides the flexibility to create (or change) the master configurations set for an
Account and apply them to one or more sites (all sites) belonging to that Account.
The following master configurations set can be made from the Control Centre:
Add/Modify the Tally.ini parameters
Assign TDL�s to a site or all the sites under an Account
Permit or Deny changes to the local configurations
The master configurations set created, is applied initially to the Account centrally, which is then inherited by
the site(s) on updation of license, based on the site level permissions defined by the Account Administrator.
Surrender, Confirm or Reject activation of a Site
The Account Administrator is authorised to surrender, confirm a site license or Reject the request received
on activation from another site.
Maintain Account related information
Allows you to maintain information about the organisation. Based on the requirements, the Account
Administrator can merge multiple accounts into one or split an account into multiple accounts for easy and
better management.
Support Centre
Tally.ERP 9 provides a new capability known as Support Centre, wherein a user can directly post his
support queries on the functional and technical aspects of the Product. Using Support Centre feature, the
46. Tally Erp.9
46 | P a g e
IASAM ACADEMY - 011-22043114
user can view all the support queries reported via Support Centre and also through other modes viz., Email,
Calls, etc.
The Support Centre feature facilitates viewing queries for an activated license along with the Status i.e.,
Closed / Pending and Ticket Summary. The report is viewed based on Date, Status and Location.
Faster reach for help and support
The Support Centre makes it easy and convenient to reach out Tally Support, including the Tally Service
Partner, for any product help and support, by a click of a button from within the product.
Access solutions to your problems any time
This feature facilitates instant reference to the solutions provided for your queries at any point of time.
Avoid repeated explanations
Availability of information on the issues, interactions and resolutions, to the entire Tally Support Team,
including the Tally Service Partners largely reduces the possibilities of repeated explanations on the
issues/support queries and thereby ensures quality help and support.
Track your issues on real-time basis
Support Centre enables you to track the status of your queries including the full chain of interactions
irrespective of the mode of communication. If you have posted a query from the Support Centre within
Tally.ERP 9 and then interacted over the phone, you will be able to see both the interactions.
Access issues of any Location/Site
In case of Multi-site License, you can view the details of issues of any location /site from any of your
Location(s).

account from the list of User Accounts in case your ID (user name) is linked to multiple accounts.

The user can make all the necessary changes to the product configuration from Tally.ERP 9 itself by going
to Data Configuration, TDL Configuration, Advanced Configuration and Licensing options available
