The entry is correct. You can pass such entry for better presentation of books of accounts. I just want to recommend a ledger name. Instead of using ITC to be claim, you can keep it like ITC not yet availed. If you are using a software like Tally for maintaining books of accounts then keeping the ledger under Duties and Taxes(Others) might be best rather than keeping in current assets as it might give better presentation of books of accounts. I am keeping this query open so that any other might give any other better idea.
