Provision for Income tax/FBT is the amount of current tax that would be payable by the assessee on the basis of income tax provisions.

As Far as entries are concerned you take note of the following: -
01. Self Assessment Tax A/c ........... Dr.
Interest A/c .......................Dr.
To Bank Account
02. Profit & Loss A/c ................. Dr.
To Provisions for I.Tax/FBT
03. when the assessment being done in the next finanacial year pass the entry: -

Provisions for I.Tax/FBT........... Dr.
To Self assessment Tax
any difference will be accounted for in the books of accounts through P & L A/c only
