Detailed Solution & Explanation

To calculate the value of the Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) as on 31st March, 2024:
1. Opening DTA as on 1st April, 2023 is 1,20,000\displaystyle `\,1,20,000.
2. Employer PF contribution of 82,000\displaystyle `\,82,000 disallowed in 2022-23 (which created a DTA of 82,000×20%=16,400\displaystyle `\,82,000 \times 20\% = `\,16,400) is allowed in 2023-24. This reverses DTA by 16,400\displaystyle `\,16,400.
3. Unamortized preliminary expenses in tax records are 1,00,000\displaystyle `\,1,00,000 (with carrying amount in books being nil as they are written off), which creates a DTA of:
DTA Created=1,00,000×20%=20,000\text{DTA Created} = `\,1,00,000 \times 20\% = `\,20,0004. Closing DTA is calculated as:
Closing DTA=Opening DTADTA Reversed+DTA Created\text{Closing DTA} = \text{Opening DTA} - \text{DTA Reversed} + \text{DTA Created}Closing DTA=1,20,00016,400+20,000=1,23,600\text{Closing DTA} = `\,1,20,000 - `\,16,400 + `\,20,000 = `\,1,23,600
Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
