It is better to make provision as per merchantile accounting system.
means???/
Provision is made for the payment of upcoming liablity which are not defined (assume). In your case you have already paid the advance tax in excess amount . it will treated as Current Assets and adjust next accounting year tax liablity.
you have to make provision for taxation for the tax liability on 31st march. Also on the same date Advance Tax would be standing in assets side of the balance sheet. In next year i.e. on 1st April when you will set off the amount of provision and Advance Tax the balance will stand as Refund of Income Tax.
Entry on 31st March
Profit & Loss A/c Dr. 100000
Cr. Provision for TAxation 100000
Entry on 1st April
Provision for Taxation Dr. 100000
Refund of Income Tax Dr. 25000
Cr. Advance Income Tax 125000
Its all what I think should be the accounting treatment.
Any corrections plz reply.
