addition u/s 43B


09 January 2009 A proprietorship firm providing entertainment services raised 4 bills for fee aggregating rs. 20 lacs and service tax thereon rs. 2.5 lacs (approx.) in F.Y.07-08.Entire 22.5 lacs was realized in F.Y.2007-08 itself. It credited rs. 20 lacs to profit & loss account and showed service tax rs. 2.5 lacs payable on liability side of balance sheet.It failed to pay service tax liability till filing of Income tax return due date i.e. 30th Sept. 2008. my query is
Since service tax is not routed through profit & loss account of the firm ,is the outstanding service tax amount (which is realized but unpaid till return due date )is liable to be added to taxable income u/s 43B.if yes, under what proviso ?

09 January 2009 Service tax payable,in the instant case,cannot be disallowed u/s 43B since it is not routed through the p&l a/c.
