In F/Y 2010-11 a newly imposed cess has been account for by debiting the P&L a/c and crediting the liability and same is disallowed in f/Y 2010-11 as not deposit till the due date of filling of ROI. But after filling of ROI for the F/Y 2010-11, the above said cess become not payable to us. In this situation if we reverse the liability in F/Y 2011-12 (which was created in F/Y 2010-11and disallowed in f/Y 2010-11), then whether, reversal of above said liability in F/Y 2011-12 will attract any tax.

In AY 2012-13 There will be no tax liability due to set off in computation of Total Income. . FY 2011-12 The discontinued liability will be debited to Cess Payable-Liability A/c and correspondingly credited in P&L A/c as Cess A/c (Income).
Net Profit will be 10000 Profit +200 Cess. =10200 Less: Cess Paid( W/off) U/s 43B 200
It will be reduced by the amount of cess as if paid U/s 43B.

Sir, Thanks a lot to resolve the above problem and kindly tell me is there any difference if question is "In F/Y 2010-11 a newly imposed cess has been account for by debiting the P&L a/c and crediting the liability and same is disallowed in f/Y 2010-11 as not deposit till the due date of filling of ROI. But after filling of ROI for the F/Y 2010-11, the above said cess become not payable to us. In this situation if we reverse the liability in F/Y 2011-12 (which was created in F/Y 2010-11and disallowed in f/Y 2010-11), then whether, reversal of above said liability in F/Y 2011-12 will attract any tax."
Since it was not deposited , it has not been claimed as an expense in the return of AY 2011-12. In return the said item has been shown as Item disallowed and such tax has been duly paid without considering the expense.
