28 December 2013 As per the AS-26, all pre-operative expense are capitalized excluding depreciation, and that to be shown as intangible assets.

No need of set off such expense against income, rather gross such expense to be amortized in 10 year (max, however, shorter period is also allowed.

Further, a detailed notes has to be given to the notes to a/c stating the full details about the same.
