Dear Sir,
I have a doubt regarding the application of Accounting Standards for a supply and installation company..
The said Company is a supplier and system integrator of Electronic Security Solutions.
95% of the projects undertaken by the company have the period of 4-7 months. But,one of their project (currently running) is of 2 to 2.5 yrs of period to complete.
$ My doubt is:
Which Accounting Standard is applicable for them to recognize the revenue during the FY 2011-12. whether it is AS 7 or AS 9?
can they use AS 9 for small projects and AS 7 for their big project during the same FY?

if the entity is into construction activity, there is no choice.
Hence irrespective of project period, the entity will have to follow AS 7. This will particularly important for quarterly accounts.

Dear Sir,
i read the AS 7 and it says that an activity is considered as construction contract only if it "creates an Asset". If it dosnt creates a asset, revenue should be recognised by applying AS 9.(as normal Sales and Installation income)
##Supply and installation of electronic security equipment's to a customers site, ultimately results in a value addition to their total assets and which can be shown as (fixtures) in their B\S.##
In this case, Can i go forward by using AS 7 for recognising the Revenue.

If you can explain the exact nature of business activity, it would be helpful to suggest a suitable solution.

It seems that AS 7 is not applicable to your business.
As i read big projects and small projects, they are big orders in terms of quantity for installation.
In this case, the entity should follow manufacturing equipments policy and recognise revenue as and when the particular equipments are installed and risk & rewards transferred to buyer.
The case seems to be more of AS 9 irrespective of its scale of business.
