12 April 2012 The adjustment entry will be made after the end of the assessment. Till then these amounts will reflect in your balance sheet.

12 April 2012 Agree with expert. However, the same can be shown after netting off in the balance sheet.
i.e. If Advance tax is more than provision, then it can be shown as Advance tax (net of provision) in loans and advances schedule
If provision is more than advance tax, then it can be shown as Provision for income tax (net of advance tax) in Provisions schedule.
