    B DTL: ₹45,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C DTA: ₹30,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D DTL: ₹30,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No DTA/DTL arises Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Deferred Tax Liability (DTL) arises when the profits as per books of accounts are higher than the profits as per income tax. The difference in profits is ₹1,50,000 (₹2,50,000 - ₹1,00,000). The DTL is calculated as: DTL = Difference in Profits × Tax Rate = ₹1,50,000 × 30% = ₹45,000
