Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the calculation of Net Working Capital, confirming it's primarily Current Assets minus Current Liabilities. Participants also touched upon the separate classification of current assets and liabilities following the Companies Act 2013 and the influence of INDAS on financial reporting. The conversation briefly explored the concept of working capital calculators and the broader idea of technological evolution in accounting standards.

No , Current Assets less Current Liability only for Calculation of net working Capital.

There is a net working capital calculator online. Try it and it's useful because it gives many simulations.ie when there can be negative and positive working capital. 

As per recent ammendment after companies act 2013.
Current assets are seperately classified.
Current liabilities are seperately classified.

That is because of indas advent. I hope as change to indas one day soon.

Irrelevant seems

There is nothing wrong. Indas is also a part harmonised accounting. It doesn't mean India loves other country's more. Everyone loves their own country. Think of it as a positive change we adopted and different technology. We adopted lots of technology and one day, India will also manufacture some new technology where others will use. That's what evolution is. I've gone through first financial statements and it all looked funny.
