AS-11 issued under Companies accounting standard rules, 2006 says method prescribed in the standard should be followed irrespective of the treatment suggested in Schedule VI of the companies act. Hence, it should be expensed.

Under Income Tax Act, Sec 43A should be followed and remember, that section talks only about the payment and not the mere restatement.
