18 December 2025 - If used for renovation/extension/improvement of factory building:
- Record under Fixed Assets → Factory Building (or "Building Renovation/Improvement" sub-head).
- It is not treated as raw material or consumable expense, because it directly relates to the structure of the building.
- If used for minor repairs/maintenance (not increasing life or capacity):
- Record under Repairs & Maintenance Expense → Factory Building Repairs.

18 December 2025 Expense vs. Capitalization
- Capitalize (Add to Asset Value) when:
- Bricks are used for structural renovation, extension, or improvement of the building.
- The renovation increases the future economic benefits (e.g., longer useful life, increased capacity, or efficiency).
- Example: Constructing a new wall, strengthening foundations, extending the building.
- Expense (Charge to P&L) when:
- Bricks are used for routine repairs or maintenance.
- The work only restores the building to its original condition without enhancing its future benefits.
- Example: Replacing a few damaged bricks in existing walls.
