First, a liabilty for tax is created.... if u pay more than this or pay advance tax, then it is a current asset. it will be shown with other current assets in the balance sheet

in case of partnership firm if advance tax is paid it should be shown u/h CA or Loans & advances & in next year or after assessment net tax payable or paid including advance tax should be tfd to p/l a/c or debited to partners capital a/c in P.S.R & if there is refund it also should be shown under same head as above mentioned
