10 October 2012 The query is not clear as to the property in residence or commercial. if it is residence, it does not take place any where in ITR as only after completion it will have to be dealt with .

If it s a commercila property the advance paid will take place in the balance sheet as an asset under advances and deposits.

11 October 2012 The residential property is a personal investment . It will not affect your books on business except that the capital u migth have withdrawn fron business by passing an entry.
If you are borrowing for the same, after completion u can claim the interest on borrowings for preconstruction period also subject to the provisions of law.
Otherwise it does not matetr now.
