Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a provision for salary is admissible for income tax purposes. Generally, salary expenses are only deductible when actually paid, as per Section 43B. While a provision for gratuity is permissible, provisions for future salaries are not deductible as business expenses and may be disallowed by the Assessing Officer.
Not admissible. Salary expenses are allowed to be claimed subject to section 43B i.e. on actual payment basis. The only provision allowed is provision for gratuity which becomes payable.
The only salary paid or incurred in the current year is deductible from current income and any provision for future salaries shall not be admissible as deduction as a business expense under Income Tax and if it is already claimed as a deduction it will be disallowed by AO in future.
