01 July 2013 Dear members,

The Company has gone for appeal for the assessment year 2010-11 however, the Company has not yet received the final order but still in this year has created a provision in the current year for the Additional demand raised by the department so whether the provision can be made eventhough the final order is not received for the tribunal?
