19 June 2013 Dear Expert,

We have created a reserve for service tax refund receivable (refund application is due with the govt.). This is required as per our Company global policy. while creating a reserve we debited the expense.

But we got a refund against the above refund receivable. so from a accoutning point of view, should we credit the expense or treat it as other income.

Kindly guide on the above query
