Hi All,

My Provision for tax and Short Provision provided total is Rs.472000/-in the accounts, but my Income tax settled at Rs.744000/- at the filing date pls explain me how should I deal with this Difference Rs.272000/-? should I need to adjust in the accounts ie creating provision again? or leave it off

I filed off the return ie provision for tax in p&l is Rs.472000/- and in the computation it is Rs.744000/- pls suggest me? whether should I need to revise my IT return for the difference provision (I mean creating additional provision which also reduces profit available for appropriation portion as well) pls suggest me clearly. thanking you all

Your tax liability = 7,44,000 (1)

Provision created = 4,72,000 (2)

Income Tax payable = 2,72,000 (1-2)

Income tax payable will shown as a liability . Advance tax paid if any is to be deducted from this Income tax payablee amount .
