Before deciding the year in which the deduction for salary will be allowed you should know under which section this can be disallowed if no deduction has been made and if after deduction the same has not been deposited.
I think you are talking of Section 40a(ia) which says if TDS is not deposited in time then it is to be disallowed and as per section 43B the same is to be allowed in the year of deposit of tax.
Sanjay, I would like to let you know that in this section the word salary is missing. Therefore, the expenses will be allowed on the accrual basis and no dis allowance can be made on account of salary.
