See for Second year u have 80000 for writing off...so U will write off Rs.20000 to P&L A/c
Preliminiary Exp A/c Dr. 20000
To Profit & Loss A/c 20000
then ur Prelim Exp wud be only Rs.60000 so this should be bifurcated as Rs.20000 in Other Current Assets (Since this will get written off next year) and Rs.40000 as other non current assets (since this will get written off in the subsequent years...Hope u got it and actually u can write off the entire expenditure in the first year itself the rule u r are referring has got changed way back this was followed before that notification and now u can write off that entire thing in the first year itself only for tax purpose it is claimed 1/5 th for five years...!!! Hope u got it...I will try to post that notification regarding writting off the entire preliminary exp in the first year itself...!!!
