Deferred tax is an accounting concept, meaning a future tax liability or asset, resulting from temporary differences between book (accounting) value of assets and liabilities and their tax value, or timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses in financial statements and their recognition in a tax computation.

You see that there is a difference in profit shown by P & L a/c and the profit determined by the Computation of Income prepared for Income-Tax purpose.
So if the present rate of Income tax is applied to book profits then definitely it will be more than what has been determined in the income tax.
Since you have paid less as per book results; it means this liability is to be raised in future.
This is Deferrement of Tax (Liability)
Opposite is Deferred Tax Asset
