it is not resulting in improvemnt or extension....

It is part of establishment charges....upkeep...etc.. it is a revenue expenditure.

26 June 2008 still revenue, why r u insisting on capital?

26 June 2008 If it is heavy expenditure. So it will be written off in comming years. So it is capital expenditure. But if this is not big amount and can be writtn off in single financial year then it will be treated as revanue expenditure

27 June 2008 sorry but a big NO. nature of exp. never depend on amount involved. it always decides on the basis of what differnce exp. has made to normal working of a plant/machine or company.
