Deferred tax is created when book profit is different from income tax profit.

So is there is difference then it is called as temporary difference.

It is two types 

1.Deductible temporary difference

When there is tax loss which is deductible in future years, it creates asset.

2. Taxable temporary difference

When there is tax profit which is payable in future years, it creates liability.
