30 December 2015 Book it in the year when it becomes Bad Debts from Doubful Debts...

Give PAN Number of that person to whom this debts is due then only it will be considered.

& Carry forward the loss.

It is for Income Tax Purpose..

For Accounting Purpose you may go for appropriate method as u deem fit. (Suggested is book as & When u come to know this is u not gonna receive)

30 December 2015 Once you claim bad debts, it will be your business loss & Carry forward on the same way as business loss.
