to x transport pvt ltd 60000
but when the bill is finally settled for say 56000,

1.will it be discount received 4000 or
 2. i shall make a reverse entry    as.....of x transport pvt ltd a/c dr....4000 to carriage 4000

The entry should be depending upon the terms of final settlement.

in your case, the correct treatment should be to pass reversal entry of Rs.4000/- by crediting to Carriage Inwards A/c.

thals for the reply,

there is no terms of settlement as such,mostly it case of excess billing,dispute in per metric ton freight charge agreed but while billing excess charged.
