In Short -
Difference Between Accouting Income & Taxation Income - That We are Going to Pay/Receive from Income Tax Department is Liability/Asset Respectively.

09 August 2012 In simple words, if INCOME TAX IS MORE THAN OF TAX CALCULATING ON BOOK PROFIT THEN ITS CALLED DEFERRED ASSETS ABD VISE A VERSHA.

09 August 2012 CA navin jain is correct . Deferred tax means timing diference between Book Income and Taxable income in Depreciation

10 August 2012 The Word "Book Profit" is Not to Be Used...
Here Difference Between Accounting Income & IT Income.
Book Profit Word Used for sec 115JB Only in Income Tax Act.
Book Profit is Defined in Sec 115JB.
But in AS-22, No Where Word Book Profit is Used.
