06 November 2014 Dear Anmol, Can you please explain me with relevant para of As-26 or any other opinion so that i can take it forward

06 November 2014 The cost of an intangible asset comprises its purchase price, including
any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently
recoverable by the enterprise from the taxing authorities), and any directly
attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use.
Directly attributable expenditure includes, for example, professional fees
for legal services. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving
at the cost.

06 November 2014 Dear Anmol,

Can we show it under Intangible Assets-WIP

and a foot note in Notes to accounts of financial statements for the Year 2013-14

06 November 2014 I think we should show it under "current assets". As you rightly said, the foot note along with notes to accounts shall bear the wording that the expenditure is incurred for registering trade mark. The same shall be capitalised once the trade is mark is registered. (Your views please)
