02 June 2017 Yes, you can do there is no problem

As per section 41(1) when there is liability which is cancelled i.e not to be paid should be treated as income and taxed as business income, Liability cancelled is time barred or not that does'nt matter.

Since you itself treat same as you income and paying tax on same so there is no problem.
