i) Schedule XIV rates are not mandatory. Company can adopt a rate which is more than the principal rates as in that schedule. Please see note 5 in https://www.mca.gov.in/Ministry/latestnews/Explanatory_Statement_alongwith_Schedule_XIV_4dec2008.pdf
ii) Disclosure as in note-5, referred above, and AS-6 has to be made in the notes attached to the financial statements.
