Quick Summary
This discussion explains how to handle TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) adjustments when the amount is small, specifically less than £100, and therefore not eligible for a bank refund. It outlines the accounting entries required to write off such amounts as an indirect expense in the Profit & Loss account. The correct journal entry involves debiting a 'TDS Receivable Written Off' account and crediting the 'Income Tax Refund' account.

Income tax refund A/c Dr 50
To TDS receivable A/c Cr. 50
( No tax payable, refund Case )

TDS receivable written off Dr A/c 50/-
To Income tax refund A/c Cr 50/-
( TDS receivable written off)

TDS receivable written off A/c will be under Indirect Expenses P & L A/c .
You means if there is no refund case...then tds receivable will be written off as indirect expenses..
Am I Right ??
Yes Correct , If you get refund, then instead of written off A/c , Bank A/c will be debited.

Bank A/c Dr. 50/-
To Income Tax refund A/c Cr 50/-
( refund credited)

No  refund ( TDS  receivable )   is your  loss  therefore  , same will be  debited  to  profit  & Loss  A/c
