In an entry, if output is completely offsetted by input, why would there be any balance left to be carried to P&L, If you say that output is not offsetted by year end, then the argument is not accepted because for year end i.e. 31st March the output should be offsetted by input.
Now, if there is any balance left, then sales tax paid is not our expense, rather collected from customers and then deposited to govt. Therefore it can never show in P&L. Interest or Penalty paid on above can be shown in P&L expense side.
