Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to handle journal entries for audit fees when the actual invoice exceeds the initial provision. It explains that an invoice received in September 2023 for FY 2022-23 should not be backdated. Instead, the correct approach involves recording the provision for audit fees and GST on 31st March, deducting TDS on the fees component. Upon receiving the actual invoice, the provision is reversed, GST input tax credit is claimed, and the difference is adjusted.

Take proforma invoice from Auditor without GST and account it accordingly..


This is wrong practice to consider it in 2022-23 FY.

Audit starts only after March and audit work commencement and completion will be in after March .

Hence provision is not required for future work.

If the audit is already started then only provision is required.

On 31st Mar:
Record two entries for provision - fees component and GST component.
Deduct TDS on the fees component.

On invoicing - reverse the provision and take ITC.

Proforma invoice can be accounted without GST
