19 October 2009 Its a direct taxes & income tax does not allow the direct tax expenditure in profit & loss account. Now after the year end adjustment keeping the tds & advance income tax in current assets for years to years does not give the true & fair value of balance, so dr. TDS & advance tax to partners capital account.

In case you wish to dr. this to profit & loss account then you can do this ultimate effect will go to capital accounts. And add back such dr. while computing the taxable income.
