When goods are supplied, the supplier is required to issue three copies of the invoice–
1.   Original invoice: buyer gets the first copy of invoice, marked as ‘Original for
recipient’.
2.   Duplicate copy: The duplicate copy is issued to the transporter (carrier of goods) to
present as evidence as and when required, and is marked as ‘Duplicate for
transporter’.
3.   Triplicate copy: This copy is retained by the supplier for his own record.
