What is owed by Anusaya?

Desk a lookup

Anusaya Fresh India owes USD 47,230, all overdue. The Xero copy is as at 8 Oct 12:05, so it is current. No cash is sitting unallocated.

Invoice 1038293 (Nhava Sheva, Murcott mandarins): USD 36,300 unpaid, issued 31 Jul, due 24 Aug, 45 days past due. Nothing has been received on it.

Invoice 1038291 (Kolkata, Murcott mandarins): USD 10,930 unpaid, due 15 Sep, 23 days past due. The USD 25,370 deposit was received 21 Aug and applied to this invoice.

Both invoices print terms of 70% on delivery of documents and 30% at 7 days from ETA.

The USD 10,930 is disputed. Anusaya says the FSSAI sticker held clearance and brought daily penalties. On 7 Oct Dinesh Shinde said one container is "still in port" over the sticker, but did not name the port. Vision reported the Kolkata empty dehired on 17 Sep and the Nhava Sheva container collected on 28 Sep. We emailed Vision at 11:49 today to confirm which container, if either, is held. No reply is on the record yet. No claim for penalties or quality is on the record.

Anusaya's stated condition for payment was the certificate of origin. James sent it on 30 Sep. On 7 Oct Dinesh Shinde asked his team to check the dues and pay. No payment is on the record since.

Our 24 Sep statement cited 30 days EOM terms. That is wrong, because the printed terms stand. The 1 Oct ruling stands: proceed as normal and chase the 70%. Atradius's USD 100,000 limit is current, but Graham Crozier is querying whether 70% on copy documents is covered. A reply to him is waiting on Approve.

What is open with Favco?

Desk a lookup

Favco QLD is a supplier, and we owe them AUD 61,238 across three bills, all past due. Xero is as at 8 Oct 12:05, and no credits are unallocated. The situation engine holds no assessment of Favco, so this comes from the account.

Each bill is half paid. Bill 000101626258 (trade 1038291, Anusaya Kolkata): AUD 16,940 unpaid, due 15 Aug, 54 days past due. Bill 000101631455 (trade 1038318, Eastern Green, Singapore): AUD 25,380 unpaid, due 19 Sep, 19 days past due. Bill 000101630152 (trade 1038315, Eastern Green, Singapore): AUD 18,918 unpaid, due 23 Sep, 15 days past due.

The AUD 87,210.50 paid on 1 Oct cleared bills 1038267, 1038293, 1038315 and 1038318. Jenny Hudgson confirmed receipt on 2 Oct and asked for the remittance advice. On 8 Oct 10:29 we sent it from james@.

Three drafts for Jenny are still waiting on Approve. One is a remittance by invoice number, and it duplicates what james@ sent this morning. One is the supply enquiry for mandarins from October to early November.

Favco has not said what happens to the three remaining balances. The 1038291 balance is tied to the Anusaya dispute, where payment is overdue and the Kolkata container is reported held. No new message from Favco on those balances is on the record since 24 Sep.

Should the waiting 5 Oct remittance draft to Jenny be discarded, since james@ sent the remittance on 8 Oct?

What's the status of this shipment?

Desk a lookup

Trade 1038293 (Anusaya, 2,420 cartons of Murcott mandarins, Brisbane to Nhava Sheva, sea, CFR) has landed and the container is out of port. Anusaya has not paid.

The vessel MEHUIN 632N left on 13 Aug under waybill AEL2078873. Vision says the consignee collected the container at Nhava Sheva on 28 Sep. On 6 Oct Mandy Collins said Anusaya already holds all the documents and has the container. The originals went by DHL on 1 Oct, and the certificate of origin was sent on 30 Sep. Vision had not dehired the empty as at 1 Oct.

The arrival date is not settled. The record shows arrival on 9 Sep from a group post. Vision's ETA moved from 7 Sep to 26 Sep, and a later desk note puts arrival c. 26 Sep. Only Vision's arrival record fixes it. That date sets when the 30% balance fell due, 7 days after arrival.

Money: invoice 1038293 shows USD 36,300 unpaid, due 24 Aug, 45 days overdue per Xero (copy of 8 Oct 12:05). The invoice due date does not follow the agreed terms of 70% on copy documents and 30% at 7 days after arrival.

On 7 Oct we sent the overdue email and there is no reply. Dinesh Shinde said one container is held over a sticker issue and named Kolkata, not Nhava Sheva. We asked Vision at 11:49 today which container, if either, is held and whether demurrage is running. No answer yet.

Still open: whether the 70% deposit documents went to the bank, Favco's supply confirmation, and the unmatched freight cost. The next action is to get Vision's Nhava Sheva arrival and dehire dates.
