TELL ME THE NATURE OF ASSETS OF WHICH THE AMC DONE.

AMC charges are incurred annually and they are to be treated as revenue expence and not to be capitalised if in the previous year it is been capitalised adjust such capitalised amount against accumulated reserves

any expenditure which is being incurred to maintain the existing assets would be treated as revenue expenditure hence charges to profit and loss account.

AS per AS 10 - Accounting for Fixed Assets

Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset should 
be added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from 
the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of 
performance.

And the expenditure incurred not be regular nature.

So it is good to treate AMC as revenue nature not capital.

AMC Charges on software is a revenue Expenditure
