19 July 2014 Dear Narendra, Trademark is an intangible asset and the expenses incurred t/w registration should be capitalised and professional fee for consultants should be treated as revenue expenditure. So the entry shall be as follows: Trademark (Asset) a/c Dr 37,500 Professional fee a/c Dr 17,500 To Consultants a/c 55,000 Note: If tds is applicable on professional fee add a JV on it for 17,500. Regards, Vijay Kumar
