15 March 2009 You have to Pass the enrty by debiting the "Advance for Flat/Building A/c" upto 3 yrs, this A/c is temporary A/c which will eliminated after getting posesssion of Flat/Buidling
once Flat/Building is completed and you will get posession then Debit The "Flat/Building A/c" and credit the "Advance for Flat/Building A/c"

15 March 2009 The temporary A/c will come under Advances and Deposit which is open under current Asset and after getting possession it will come under Fixed Assets
However if the nature of business is bying and Selling such properties then after getting possession it will come under Investment
