Dear

Any dues to be paid & provided in the books amy be treated as unclaimed liability. For exmaple a retnetion money has tobe paid on completion of a contract after a certain period say 3-5 years. But the party at the end has nat claimed/paid ever after the stupilated period it has tobe treated as income (other income/misc. income) This is the normal procedure.
