Prelim expenses is allowed over 5 years period. Tax will be less in future. so in present - an asset is created.
Sir in the first year DTA is created na? In subsequent years it is reversed na sir? Isn't this preliminary expense of subsequent year sir?

Sir, if it is for first year, then where did the preliminary expense charged to accounting book gone? Then 1,50,000 should be charged in first year na?

Why are you bringing unknowns in the illustration. Question is simple, there is some unamortised expense as per tax record, which means in future, we shall have lesser tax liability, so you create DTA. Simple
