Vat security deposit

A/c entries 1584 views 1 replies

Hi guys,

 Consider this example.....I form a private limited company with my friend, we two as subscribers to the memorandum and also directors. I take VAT registration for the company paying the requisite amount as deposit with National Savings Scheme and pledge it with the department, note that NSCs are only allowable to individuals. So, NSC is taken in the name of either of us. What is the accounting entry ? If the Security Deposit is treated as company's own, which is actually correct....how can I justify my book entries ?

Sir, Director while acting on behalf of the company can hold the NSC on their own name and the company can stand as a nominee. So keep it simple, Show it in the Balance Sheet of the company. No justification is required as everyone knows that NSC is issued on Individual names only. This is the practice which every company follows.
