FOllow AS-21 on Deferred Tax, and you will get clarified.

I suggest just read D.S.Rawat (CA Final) on Accounting Standards.

i agree with above answer.... you need to follow the AS and you will get all answers.
I think its As 22 on deferred tax.. As per AS deferred tax will arise on losses if there is resonable certanity with convincing evidence that there will be resonable profit in the coming years though which defered tax will be set off.. For more details please refer As.
deferred tax will arise only if der ia certainity that profit will occur .in this case it seems dat as per books profit wont occur hence dont create
As per AS 22, the concept of deffered tax is to.neutralize the timing difference, on which tax is levied on specefic heads which differ as per both the statutes. Expenses inadmissible do not influence the treatment as per AS 22, especially in case of depreciation, unless specifically stated in contravention, that is calculated otherwise thsn provided for in the act
Para 17 of AS-22 shall be applicable while company is having losses
If the inadmissible expenses which you are talking about is relating to expenses which will be allowed in future years then Defered Tax Asset will arise but if the above expenses are nature of permanent disallowances then no DTA/DTL will arise. But above reply is subject to the reasonable certainty that in future profits will arise.
