Hi,

It is recommended to w/o in 5 yrs so that ur books reconcile with ur IT computation. Entries are as follows:-

 

1. Preliminary Expense - Dr (Current Asset)
                             To Cash\Bank
                             
2. Preliminary Expenses Written Off - Dr (Indirect Expenses)
                                        To Preliminary Expenses
 
3. Profit & Loss A\c. - Dr
                To Preliminary Expenses Written Off
 
 
For any further query PM or mail us.
