13 June 2014 Fencing Cost can very well be capitalised and depreciated....however leveling cost may be treated as revenue cost in the cases of existing units and capital cost in the cases of newly established units.

14 June 2014 No. The deduction from Capital Fund would be a wrong policy and disclosure. It should be shown as addition to fixed asset.
