A Construction company need to follow the Accounting standard -7 for recognasie the sales revenue As per AS-7 percentage of completion method need to follw to arrive the Sales. If You are aleady done some work but not billed you need to calculate percentage of completion based your revenue as sales

But You only received the advance no work as started then such as case no sale in your P&L a/c. Only advance from customer need to show in liability side
