Provision for bad debts
Replies (5)
provision for bad debts is shown under liability. In schedule VI it shown under provision.
now the question arise whether it is short term provision/long term provision it depends on the nature i.e. days,yrs etc.
if the provision made for more than one yr then shown under long term provision otherwise shown under short term provision.

You cannot show in current liability, it is to be reduced from trade receivable as disclosed above.
Revised Schedule VI applies.
