Rental income

This is with respect to a client. The client has shown rental income in relation to a property occupied by X Ltd. X Ltd is unable to pay rent and hence the client has asked them to vacate the property May end. But rental income has been shown for the year 2017-18 , which has not been received. Security deposit given has already been adjusted , still money is receivable from the party, which he is not going to pay. 

 

How do i treat this during the audit? Should rental income be reversed to such extent?

No need to reverse the Rental Income. You can write off the Debit balance in the Tenant's Account to Bad Debts A/c

Yes charge of the remaining portion to P&L account as bad debt.

Thank you for the opinion.
