Provision for income tax(Net) should be shown under the heads>> Current Liabilites >> short term provisions.

Advance tax(if any and net off provision) be shown under the heads>>Non-current Assets>>Long term loans and advances.

Awaiting more expert opinions.

As per Revised schedule provision can be classified under Long term provision & short term Provision

Provision for tax changes from year to year it means that it can be classified under short term provision (Under Current LIabilities)

& provision regarding employee Benefits (EPF) will be shown under long term provision (Non Current Liabilities)

& same treatment for the Advance tax becoz such amount is likely to be adjuster with the co. current year tax so it will be classified under Short term Loans & Advances (Under Current Asset)
