16 April 2015 Greetings Shivani,
An expense which is pre operative can only be capitalised if their is a probabiity that the asset can generate future economic benefit.
So the treatment would be , since it is an expenditure...
Asset A/c
To Bank/Cash
Asset A/c would be that asset for which such expense have been made
..
If there is no expectation or any future benefit , then it has to be trasnferred to P&L account.

16 April 2015 thanks a lot... can u please suggest me any AS or guidance note or any other link which i can show to my seniors..
