Quick Summary
The query concerns accounting treatment of GST paid through DRC-03 for excess ITC availed in FY 2017-18. Responses suggest recording the payment under an indirect tax or tax expense account, generally classified under indirect expenses and treated as an allowable business expenditure.

You can pass an entry for GST paid in "Tax expense" a/c under indirect expense group. Also, GST paid by DRC 03 is an allowable business expenditure.
Yes agree with @ Sumit Jain
You should pass entry under Indirect Tax paid head in indirect exp

yes you can also claim as business exp, it's allowed under Income Tax

hello sir 

 

SIR GST  DRC ENTY IN TALLY KINDLY CONFIRM

 

Entries and tax treatment:

• Reversal of excess ITC paid through DRC-03:

– Dr "GST ITC Reversed – FY 2017-18" (P&L, Rates & Taxes or prior-period item), Cr Electronic Cash Ledger/Bank.

– If the ITC was originally credited to the purchase or expense cost, the reversed tax is effectively a cost now.

– Show interest separately (Dr Interest on GST, Cr Bank). Show penalty, if any, separately (Dr Penalty, Cr Bank).

• Income-tax:

– Reversed ITC (tax): deductible as business expenditure (Sec 37(1)) and allowable on payment (Sec 43B).

– Interest on delayed GST: compensatory, so generally allowed.

– Penalty: disallowed (Explanation 1 to Sec 37(1)).

• Prior-period: if material, disclose under AS 5 / Ind AS 8. It does not affect the year of deduction for tax (year of payment under 43B).

• In tax audit (Form 3CD), report it in the clause for prior-period items and in the clause for amounts debited in respect of penalty or fine, if any.
