  The company made an error in depreciation calculation during earlier financial periods.
  Due to this the company's net block is undervalued by Rs 1 cr.
   
  How could we rectify this error and disclose in financials
Option A Considering this as prior period item in the financials
Option B Revaluation of asset and bringing it to current market value.
