[1] According to the latest MCA amendment w.e.f. 30 March 2016 by MCA in AS 4, proposed dividend is not to be recognised as liability in the books of account; but is to be shown only by way of a note to the accounts since the statutory obligation for dividends arises only after approval by the shareholders.
[2] ICAI suggested answers [CA Inter May 2017 Q. 1(d)] also confirm this treatment.
[3] Most of the published Financial Reports of listed companies for year ending 31 March 2017 have also shown proposed dividend only by way of note and not as an appropriation / current liability.
[4] However, in all the Illustrations in the latest study material (July 2017) for CA Inter Paper 1 Accounting Module 23 Chapter 4 - Financial Statements of Companies-; and CA Final Financial Reporting RTP for Nov 2017 Q 1, proposed dividend is shown in the body of the balance sheet (by deduction as appropriation from Reserves and surplus; and as current liability) and not in the notes.

Which treatment is to be followed?
