ABHAY,
THE PROFIT WILL NOT BE AFFECTED. WHILE CALCULATING PROFIT , IT WILL BE SHOWN BELOW THE LINE AFTER CALCULATING NET PROFIT AS IT IS NOT ALLOWED UNDER IT ACT.

hi Ritesh
As per ur calculation
Opening Bal in Provision for tax 70000
Transfer in Ist entry 205000
2nd entry (150000)
Net Bal is 125000 which is not equal to the total liability which is Rs 275000/-
Also, till the time the assessment is over we have to maintain the Advance Tax account as well as the provision account (which is normally equal) and is written off only after assessment. Here even the opening balance differs, the reason for which is to be looked into.
