My client ( Turnover 95 crs. and Net profit after tax 2 crs.) has recongnised refund of tax Rs. 12 lacs as income and has created a current asset as Tax refundable. In my(auditor) opinion it is not an income and therefore both income and current asset can not be taken to the P & L A/c and Balance Sheet respectively.
Que. - Is it a 'material' thing for qulification? if yes how and where to give the qualification?

The company has shown the refund due as the income of the previous year, which in my/our opinion is a current asset to be grouped under the same. Subject to above.... the balance sheet........ Put this in the main audit report itself; after the paragraph of it is the responsibility of management ... my/our duty is to express opinion etc etc.
