20 February 2015 Dear sir
How can we traet the preliminary expenses as per Income tax act 1961 and Companies act 2013, when it was incurred while incorporating the company...
whether the same procedure is applicable to Firms also?

20 February 2015 Deduction of preliminary expenses according to Income Tax U/s 35D:- only Indian company and a resident Indian can claim deduction of preliminary expenses. Deduction of preliminary expenses are given in 5 equal installment beginning with the previous year of commencement of business or previous year in which the extension of undertaking is completed or new unit commences production or operation.
The benefit of the preliminary expenses is long-term so it is treated as intangible asset and shown in Balance sheet under Missilinous assets. These expenses will be written off in 5 equal year installment in profit and loss A/c. you can also transfer whole amount in single year.

20 February 2015 is it applicable for partnership firms and charitable trust also..?

20 February 2015 The expenses will be minimal on such entities it can be charged/claimed in one year.
