Fixed Asset Accounting

Fixed Assets below Rs.5000  is to be written off in 12 months from the date of its aquisition, only the depreciation of the months related to particular year is debited to P.L. account & also clearly idetifieble can not be matched with register maintained.

fixed asset below Rs.5000/- is liable to 100% depreciation as per companies act, but such assets cannot be directly debited to p&l a/c. only the depreciation thereon is debited to p&L a/c.

Thanks for your reply. But items like calculator, mouse, or such small items having very low value should be capitalised in a co with turnover of more than 1200 crores? The cost of maintaining Fixed Assets Register is very high as manpower is costly. As per As 10, an enterprise may expense out an item otherwise should have been an item of fixed asset because the amount is not material. Again whether this will affect clause 17(a) of Form 3CD( Tax Audit)? . I would like know what is practice followed in any listed co.
