17 October 2012 Bank Guarantee is non fund based limit sanctioned by banks and other financial institutions.

BG is Contingent Liability and shown only in Notes to the Accounts.

There is no entry required when no collateral or security is given.

However, entry is required when any security by way of Cash margin like security deposit, FD etc and that can be shown under current assets in Balance sheet as Margin money on BG.

When BG is settled or expired, entry for margin money should be reversed.
