Dear Sir,

Our company constructing a steel manufacturing mini plant. In case of capitalization, every thing is o.k. But if I come to Civil Works expenditure, how to capitalize these civil works expenditure asset wise.

Present we are just debiting expenses to like total cement cost, total steel cost, total labour expenses etc. How to divide these expenses asset wise.

I am thinking about three options. But I dont know which one is correct option.

1) Debiting total expenditure to a particular asset (i.e., cement, steel, labor, sand etc.) After completion of plant dividing these total expenditure asset wise based on estimated cost.

2)Debiting expenses to particular cost a/c (cement), after getting data from Civil Works department, passing a Journal Entry EX;-
Asset A/c Dr.
To Cement/Steel A/c

3) Capitalizing at the time of purchase itselt, based on estimated/actual cost.
Ex:-
Building 1 A/c
Building 2 A/c
Foundations A/c
To Cement Supplier A/c

But the 3rd option is not possible in actual time.

Sorry, if there is any confusion in my explanation said above.

Thank you all,
Swamy

Sir,

One of our client in bangalore and they are executing work in bombay, from bombay they supplied material to near bombay places only. our client office in bangalore should we charge CST or VAT?
If we charge Vat that is not our local sales, for CST movement of goods from one state to another state. in our case there is no movement of goods from one state to another state.

How to go about this issue and how to account in our book regaring sales tax issue?

Thanks in Advance
