The company charged such expenses to P&L A/c. Is the treatment is correct?. If not correct, what is actual accounting treatment in this regard. What are the Statuatory Compliances to establish a Foreign Subsidiary?

The treatment is absolutely right in view of AS 26.Since the Exp. does not meet the recognition criteria, it must be expensed in the year in which it is incurred.
