25 May 2016 preoperative exp will claim as exp. in P/l and preliminery exp w/o 20% every year. not carry in b/s .

25 May 2016 Charge all preliminary and preoperative exp to P & L ac and book loss. File the return and carry over the loss to be set off in future.

25 May 2016 loss set off available for that
