If you are showing your income in the head PGBP, you can claim expenses for auditor payment of 4000 and your profit is reduced by 4000.But
If your income is on salary or house property or capital gain or Other sources..there is no any treatment of such payments.

as you say, submmiting 4000 rupees to auditor for filling income tax return per year. so, specify that wheather the whole amount of 4000 is itr filling fees, or it inclusive income tax . if it is itr fees and your taxable income is under head pgbp then it is showing as a professinal charges in profit & loss account , otherwise upto the extent of professional fees it is allowed to show as a indirect expence .
