25 April 2009 In the first financial year, the asset is to be capitalized at full value (i.e. cash paid and considerationa agreed to be paid). In the second financial year, when there is remission, in liability, it is a capital receipt which will have to be adjusted against asset carrying cost. It is reduction in carrying cost of the asset. The depreciation should accordingly be reworked to write the asset within the balance of life of asset.
For income tax purpose, the receipt on account of capital transactions is not a trading income or deemed profits for being taxed as business income.
