Accounting of Govt Grant in aid-Assam Tea Estate

AS 435 views 2 replies

We have received Central Govt Grant in aid Rs.5 Cr towards setting up manufacturing plant in Assam. There are 3 options- either reduce asset value by grant amount or show Grant in accounts & Charges of over 5 years.

In case of 1 st option, Assets value is purposely reduced- not a true reflection. All follow 1 st. Kindly guide.

You may follow Option 2 (deferred income) even though “everyone follows the first method.”
✔ It is fully compliant with AS 12 and provides a more accurate picture of the fixed assets.
✔ Option 1 is simpler but understates asset values.

Many thanks.  How this will be dealt with in cost audit. 

Please guide.
