But the current investment are to be valued as per AS-13 which says cost or arket price whichever is lower..........
No In this case Closing Stock Must Valued at Cost Price...
It'll depend whether he shows the income as CG or BP.
If he assumes the income as business income, then he can apply AS - 2
if not, AS - 13 apply.
Note that the cliente is share trader. means when investment is made ie purchase, it is very clear that it is intended to sale. so going by this intention under the provision of AS-13, it should be valued at lower of cost or market value.
hope it serves the purpose.
AS per AS-13 Its As Per Market price of that particular Day
