should normally be accounted for as a revenue expenditure. if you have paid for 2-3 years license, then account for unsed period as prepaid expense.

Thank you sir for replying... But my Chartered is saying that this will be considered as an Intangible asset and so charging depreciation @ 25% for financial year 2013-2014. How can I convince him to record such tally purchase as a revenue expenditure.. Please help and provide some link or quote the relevant section which clearly says the correct treatment of such entry.. Please

lets say you buy tally for three years licence..ok...now ask your CA, how will 25% depreciation apply in this case, if the product itself wont be available for use after 3 years!

I have asked him all the questions relating to this matter but still he is not agreeing with me to treat the same as a revenue expenditure.. Please help me in finding a proof like any circular or any amendment or the relevant section so that I can prove my point easily.. Please

well the books of accounts are the prerogative of management. I would advise you to frame a accounting policy of recognizing such expenses. let the CA qualify his report if he wishes to. He will have to qualify on the basis of established norms..let him state his reasoning. Why are you worried about what CA thinks....he should be doing the research, not you.

Hello
I differ in opinion.
With due respect to mr kaushik sir, I believe that it can be taken as a fixed asset. If the client has procured a licensed version then it is not like you will not be able to use the software after the license term is over. In fact you can use it as long as you want to use or untill the software itself is outdated. (after the license term you can still use it as you want only thing is you will not be provided with the updates in the software)
Regards
