Mr.A (proprietor of Crackers Shop) has paid a sum of Rs.1,00,000 for explosive license for 5 years. Whether it is an asset or expense? If it is asset, whether it has to be written off over a period of 5 years.

I think there can be two options for u:

  1. Treat it as asset in which case depreciation @ 25% will be applicable on Written down value method
  2. Treat it as deferred revenue expenditure and charge off the same in 5 yrs.
