Sales tax collected is a liability
You collect sales tax. Should pay to gvt. So is liability
Sale tax paid is exp or lib

Any indirect tax is collected on behalf of Central / State Governments, so it is liability only. The tax not collected but has to pay on account of any ommission on against any assessment is an expenditure.

 

It is liability 

However if you include this in sales amount, then it is also a exp rahter than liability.
