Quick Summary

This discussion explores the correct accounting treatment for significant prepaid rent expenses, specifically for rent covering multiple years. It questions whether the entire amount should be classified as a current asset, a non-current asset, or split between the two. The consensus leans towards presenting it under 'loans and advances' within current assets, especially when a substantial portion relates to the upcoming year.

It's better to shown in loans and advances under current asset.
