Hello geometry dash meltdown,

1. Yes. Section 15 prescribes payment deadlines of 15 days without a written agreement or up to 45 days with an agreement. Section 43B(h) governs the income-tax deduction for delayed payments to qualifying micro and small enterprises.

2. Yes. It applies from FY 2023–24 (AY 2024–25). The ₹60 lakh outstanding creditor balance as at 31 March 2024 is not automatically disallowed; the supplier's MSME status and invoice-wise payment deadlines must be checked.
