Thank for your valuable reply, but please clearify the TDS entry in the above mentioned case,, TDS (Professional) which is to be deducted, when i will paid the funds to settelment.

 

Expense a/c    Dr.  5000

Input service tax Dr. 515

Thanx for the reply CA Ankur Jain,, suppose i deposite collective Tax (TDS-Professional) only once in a month i.e. 6th of every month, not bill wise, so can just made a entry to Dedit the Sundry Creditor and credit my bank acoount by the actual payable amout which should be after TDS. and make a single entry for all my TDS (professional),  can u show that entry also...

Yes Yes offcourse you can make a single entry to square up the tds payable account 

(1) For Expense:-

     (a) If your Company is liable to pay Excise Duty or Service Tax :-

              Expense A/c                     Dr.  5000/-

              Service Tax Input A/c       Dr.   515/-

                            To Sundry Creditor A/c             5515/-

     (b) If your company is not liable to pay Service Tax or Excise Duty :-

             Expense A/c---      Dr. 5515/-

                    To Sundry Creditor               5515/-

 

(2)  For Payment:-

     Sundry Creditor A/c   Dr.      5515/-

            To  TDS Payable                              552/-

            To Cash                                           4963/-

 

(3) Now pay TDS:-

      TDS Payble A/c       Dr.                552/-

              To. Cash                                           552/-

Journal entry for TDS:

Party a/c Dr (Since it is recoverable from party we are debiting)

To TDS a/c (Since its our liablity to remit tds to govt we are crediting)

This is the basic journal entry for TDS, if we deduct tds at the time of payment, the above said journal entry will be compounted to payment entry.  vice versa for expense booking due entry.

 

 

(1) For Expense:-

     (a) If your Company is liable to pay Excise Duty or Service Tax :-

              Expense A/c                     Dr.  5000/-

     Sundry Creditor A/c   Dr.      5515/-

            To  TDS Payable                              552/-

            To Cash                                           4963/-

 

(3) Now pay TDS:-

      TDS Payble A/c       Dr.                552/-

              To. Cash                                           552/-

AGREED

AGREED

Dear Friend, if TDS is applicable you have to deduct it at payment or credit whichever earlier.
The Journal entry which you have passed in point number 1, TDS ought to have been deducted at that stage. Your entries would hold true only when credit and payment is on the same date.

Otherwise , the above entry is absolutely correct.:)
