Quick Summary

This discussion addresses a common query during tax audits: how to handle income tax paid when it appears on the debit side of the Profit and Loss account. The consensus is that income tax paid is a disallowed expenditure under Section 40a of the Income Tax Act. Therefore, it should be shown as a disallowed expenditure within the Income Tax Return (ITR).
