In a cash flow statement, the balance sheet shows Provision for Taxation of Rs. 80,000 and Rs. 95,000 for the year 2023-24 and 2024-25 respectively. Tax paid during the year 2024-25 is Rs. 60,000. What will be the amount of tax to be added while calculating net profit before tax and extra ordinary items?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

The figure added back is the provision made during the year, not the tax paid. Provision made == closing provision 95,000+95,000 + tax paid 60,000−60,000 - opening provision 80,000=75,00080,000 = 75,000.
