short provision of previous year means the actual tax for the previous year paid in current year is more than the provision of tax done in previous year.
and being it expense it should be written off in profit and loss a/c and we will show is as previous year expense / provision charged to current year.

Provision for tax is made based on working by company side. During assessment the IT dept make some dis allowances leading to requirement of higher tax payment which is the reason for short provision. Such short provision in the earlier years after assessment will be deducted/adjusted from current year profits,

Like.
If the tax liability for the PY is 150,000 but
provision was made for only 100,000.So we debit provision of Rs. 100000 to py p&l and short provision of Rs. 50000 for current year? Is that right?
