29 May 2010 If the court application has been filed, pending court approval you are preparing the books of accounts of the company, what you are following for other matter should follow for the tax provision also. If you are preparing the books as if the merger has taken place ( Consolidated accounts for all the companies), then you consider the brought forward loss of the merging company also for tax provision purpose. If not ( Individual accounts ), then you should prepare the different provisions in different companies. In case the effective date is approved by court before last date of filing of income tax return, in that case you need to prepare the tax return considering that the merger has taken place.
