Booking of payments for purchase of software

This query is : Resolved 

09 November 2024 Sir,

Payments made for purchase or use of softwares like Tally.

Should the said payments be booked under "Royalty" or "Repairs and Maintenance"?

09 November 2024 Since accounting software like Tally is a long-term asset and provides benefits over a period of time (typically more than a year), it is generally classified as an intangible asset. You can book the purchase under "Intangible Assets" or "Software" in the balance sheet.

Journal entry example:
Debit: Intangible Assets (Software)
Credit: Bank
