Only the third party liability part should be capitalized as this is the part of insurance expenses without which the vehicle cannot be made available for use. However, one should consider materiality aspect to this.

In a public limited oe listed companies the the amount of premium of insurance will always be immaterial amount. So if we treat the the first insurance premium as revenue expenditure, the basic provisions of AS 10 will always get violated by following materiality priciple. Hence whether material amount or not, the first premium of car insurance should always be capitalised
