03 July 2012 First off all, while finalising March 31, 12, you will have to value the inventory at cost or NRV, whihc ever is lower. Hence most of the down side will come as impairment.

Balance value will come as a debit in next years P&L in the form of decrease in inventory with no correspinding revenue.

03 July 2012 In March it will be "inventory written off".

In next year it will be in "Change in inventory".
