See this is a long term invesst and you have to value it as per AS 13 -ie at cost and i dont think you can revalue it upwards.
       Secondly this will be a notional valn and hence without any tax consequences and tax consequences will be there only on actual sale and actual profit.
        If you revalue ,then deferred tax consequences will be there as per AS 22.
Normally, long-term investments such as these, are stated at acquisition cost only. revaluation can be made only if the change in value is long term. even if u do revalue it upwards....u will have to create a revaluation reserve, which, as far as i know, cannot be set off against debit balance in the P/L account.
