10 August 2012 First of all you have to create ledgers for Income Tax and House Tax. Create these under Capital A/c as these are personal expenses just like drawings.

You must have a ledger of Bank A/c from which the payment is to be made.

Now, you just have to make a payment entry by debiting the Tax A/c and Crediting the Bank A/c.

31 July 2024 Income Tax and House Tax are typically categorized under "Duties & Taxes" because they are both considered taxes. However, in accounting practices, it's often clearer to separate them into distinct ledgers for better tracking and reporting.
Income Tax is a direct tax and is better classified separately under "Duties & Taxes" as it specifically pertains to income tax liabilities.
House Tax (or Property Tax) can also be classified under "Duties & Taxes" or a custom category like "Taxes Paid" if you want to track it separately.
