This question is not correct. what do u mean by the term market value of the machine (a) sale value of old machine or (b) purchase price of a similar new machine.

^^ He meant "sale value of old machine : Realisable Value"

"if book value of machinery is 10 lakhs on 31st March 2010 and market value on the same date is 11 lakhs and company shows machinery at 11 lakhs"

In Normal situation we don't prefer this re-valuation method I.e Realisable Value If an concern takes such revaluation of assets he will have to create h revaluation reserve acount

Don't go to the Accounting Standards. Let him clear the CPT first.

If you sold the machine then show realisable value. Or otherwise show only historical value

Only historical value to be followed, otherwise sufficient case of reveluation needed for the assets. the value must have a evidence for resale or value of the same machine in the market. that time only the revaluation reserve must be created, but the expenses will not be debite in the profit and loss account. it is not a matter cpt or final or b.com, accounting treatment is same for all.
