26 November 2010 In the books of accounts u have both options to write it off over a period of five years or write it off in one year itself.

All listed companies write it off in the year in which they are incurred and many non listed companies write it off over a period of five years.

For listed companies it is compulsory to write it off in the year in which they are incurred.

DTA can be made on the difference of written off as per books and allowable as per I. T. as in IT the same is allowable over a period of 5 years.

Would it be proper to write off the preliminary expenses and the pre-operative expenses after the company starts operations.
