I had FD with bank for 3 years for sum of Rs.50lacs.

For 31/3/2011 Interest accrued is Rs.321495.

In that TDS @ 20% is Rs.64300

What is the journal entry for Income as well as TDS receivable.

Thanks in Advance.

IN MY OPINION,

ACCRUED iNTEREST A/C DR. 321495

TO iNTEREST 321495

THEN,

FDR A/C DR. 257195

TDS A/C DR. 64300

TO ACCRUED INTEREST 321495

THEN,

CASH/BANK A/C. DR. 5257195

TO FDR 5257195

AND TDS WILL BE SHOWN AT ASSETS SIDE AS BALANCE WITH REVENUE AUTHORITIES UNDER THE HEAD LOANS & ADVANCES AND THIS ENTRY WILL BE DIVIDED INTO 3 PARTS FOR 3 YEARS

As Bank will never deduct all the TDS amount in one time, bank liable to deduct tax @ 10% as TDS. And Mr. Aaditya is right that you have to record/book interest amount as your income on accural basis. If you are individual then i would suggest you to show your this income year wise accural basis to avoid tax burden in final year as you can show all the interest amoutn in final year but bank will deduct your TDS year wise and @ 20% if you dont have PAN.

321495 is one year interest how can you devide into 3 parts?

on 50 lakh if we take minimum 8% interest than interest will be 4 lakhs per annum

As you all are confusing him as per my view of point, the entry should as per Form 16A which will be issued by the BANK. at the end of every Financial Year. Interest part should be recorded as per FORM 16A. Whatever amount in Form 16A, the entry should be as follow:

Interest Accrued on FDR A/c (Current Assets) Dr 1000 (For example)

TDS Receivable (Current Assest) Dr 100 (For example)

To Interest received on FDR A/c Cr 1100 (For example)

I hope now you all dont have any query remain. This practice is used if you go with accural basis which follows by the corporates but in case of individual you can adopt both the basis i.e. Cash Basis or Accural Basis.

I would suggest you that follow the accural basis to avoid tax liability in final year if you have FD for 3 year or more as by using accural basis tax liability divides in every year.
