How to account for investment in associate in case where the associate was the subsidiary of the holding company and due to allotment of share of subsidiary it becomes associates?

As provisions are made on estimated basis they are not accurate. I want to know whether the year end provision is to be reversed in the next year or the bills are to booked against them.

Also as TDS is also applicable on provisions then how to make their payment.
