It is provided in Companies act that where the expenditure is less than Rs 5000/-.It can be written off to profit & Loss account.It need not be capitalised. Also by prudence we can say that it can be written off than deferring it by capitalising..

In case of corporates SCH XIV says that assets which costs Rs. 5,000 or less than that should be written off in the year of acquisition itself. But provide in notes to accounts the below clause: - Individual low cost assets (acquired for less than Rs 5000/-) are depreciated within a year of acquisition. Regards KRISHNA
