25 September 2009 If you have received payments for civil contracts after deduction of WCT-TDS, then following is the accounting treatment for the such TDS amount:

1) WCT - TDS Receivable A/C Dr. (Loans & Advances - Current Assets)
----To Debtor A/C
(Being WCT-TDS deducted by party on Civil contract).

2) VAT / CST payable A/C Dr.
----To WCT - TDS Receivable A/C
(Being WCT-TDS credit utilised for payment of VAT / CST).

Note:

1) You can claim such TDS only against your VAT / CST Liability...

2) If you are an Unregistered Dealer, then you can directly expense out such TDS amount..
