31 December 2012
One of My client being A state Government Ltd Company.
During the current year the Company has given a Bank Guarantee to one of party from bank against Performance based contract.(i.e. Performance Guarantee) but not Financial Guarantee.
Accordingly the Bank charged to My client's Account towards BG issuance charges which was in Lakhs of Rupees.Our client debited to such charges to Other Expenses.However during the course C & AG Audit the Auditor pointed out that the same should be Financial Cost to Co.hence wrongly debited to Other Expenses instead of Financial Cost/Expenses.
Noe query is whether remarks/observations as pointed out by C & AG Auditor is correct or not as my client is not having any non fund based facility from Bank in the form Bank Guarantee. even they can request to Bank for issuance of Bank Guarantee without Margin in form of FDR so far State Government undertaking is concerned.
