Profit is asset..but we wil show it in liability side as it
is belongs to share holders so company has to give it to
shareholders...so we r showing under liability side.

profit with respect to company it is a liability as it has
to pay it to shareholders.

Profit with respect to shareholders it is a asset.

it is a liability from the company point of view as it owe it to its shareholders, that is the reason it is added to the reserves under the liabilities side.
