पर्याय

• Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct reason of (A).

• Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the conect reason of (A).

• Only (A) is correct.

• Both (A) and (R) are wrong.

Answer 1

Only (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Bank Overdraft is rightly shown under Short-term Borrowings, so Assertion (A) is correct. However, Provision for Tax is shown under Short-term Provisions, not under Other Current Liabilities, so Reason (R) is incorrect.
