Generally It has to be routed through Profit and Loss account.
If specifically you do not want to route it through profit and loss account you reduce from your general reserves or bad debts reserve if you have. But you will loose the income tax benefit.

The income benefit will be allowed if the debt is fully written and was in nature of business and credited to incomein previous years and not any other advances like land advances and irrespective whether they are debited in profit and loss a/c or not.
