16 June 2013 Dear Fellow Members,
Please advise me in following scenario- XYZ is a public listed company. Local government has taken 10% of its land due to the local government's road extension project without giving any compensation.

The company follows cost model for its fixed assets. And now the question is simply passing an entry of derecognising the proportionate amount of land assuming a disposal of assets while charging profit is must or there are any other way out is here?

Please note standards for impairment is not applicable here due to carrying amount is much lower than the fair market value.

As per AS 10 Accounting for Fixed Assets, Fixed assets means an an asset held with the intention of being used for the purpose of
producing or providing goods or services and is not held for sale in the normal course of
business.

Here in your case that 10% portion is not satisfying the basic thing Asset definition hence the same should de-recognized in books of accounts and transfer to Profit & loss account
