19 June 2015 As per AS-4 any event occurring between the date of financial statements and its approval , if has an impact on the assets and liabilities that existed on the date of balance sheet should be adjusted for. In my opinion since the change in rate of tax affects the provision for taxation, you should adjust the same.
