Daily cash opening & closing: a simple habit for Indian shops
Set opening cash when the shop starts, track cash sales and expenses, then close the day with expected vs actual cash in hand.
## Why opening cash matters
Without a recorded opening balance, you cannot explain short cash at night. Every shop should confirm opening cash before billing starts.
## What to track during the day
- Cash sales and cash purchases - Expenses paid in cash - Wallet refill (cash out) and recharge sales (cash in), if you sell prepaid
## Closing the day
Compare expected closing with physical cash. Differences highlight missed entries early — before they become monthly headaches.
