### Notes:

1. Opening Balance: 2,50,000
2. Bank Deposit: 75,000
3. Purchases: 40,000
4. Purchases from Ramesh: 30,000
5. Furniture purchased: 25,000
6. Issued Cheque to Creditor: 28,500
7. Cash Sales to Vishnu: 36,000
8. Cash Sales of 1,00,000, out of which 20,000 banked: The remaining 80,000 is recorded as cash sales.
9. Ganga Ram’s Receipt: 19,600
10. Loan Given to Charan Das: 40,000
11. Payment to Ramesh: 1,500

Let's verify and validate the cash balance step by step:

1. Starting balance: ₹2,50,000
2. Adding deposit: ₹2,50,000 + ₹75,000 = ₹3,25,000
3. Subtracting purchases: ₹3,25,000 - ₹40,000 = ₹2,85,000
4. Subtracting purchases from Ramesh: ₹2,85,000 - ₹30,000 = ₹2,55,000
5. Subtracting furniture purchase: ₹2,55,000 - ₹25,000 = ₹2,30,000
6. Subtracting cheque issued to a creditor: ₹2,30,000 - ₹28,500 = ₹2,01,500
7. Adding cash sales to Vishnu: ₹2,01,500 + ₹36,000 = ₹2,37,500
8. Adding cash sales of ₹80,000 (after banking ₹20,000): ₹2,37,500 + ₹80,000 = ₹3,17,500
9. Subtracting loan given to Charan Das: ₹3,17,500 - ₹40,000 = ₹2,77,500
10. Subtracting payment to Ramesh: ₹2,77,500 - ₹1,500 = ₹2,76,000
11. Adjusting for Ganga Ram's receipt: ₹2,76,000 + ₹19,600 - ₹20,000 (banked part of cash sales) = ₹2,75,600 + ₹19,600 = ₹2,95,600

Final balances after April transactions: ₹2,95,600

Thus, the correct balance as on April 30th, 2023, in the cash book is ₹2,95,600.
