13 July 2012 VAT and service tax amount payable to authorities does not come in profit & Loss Statement.
VAT & ST can never be shown in revenue from operations.
Only Excise duty is shown and that is also for the purpose of disclosure.

13 July 2012 Revised schedule VI as well as AS-9 is silent on the above issues. Therefore, relying on the "Guidance Note on Accounting for State level VAT", segregation of VAT from sales and making net presentation of sale of goods is suggested.
Same analogy is preferred for SERVICE TAX.
