Can you please let me know that why salary payable is not considered as trade payable and is shown in other current liability even though trade payable includes payments for utilization of goods and SERVICES?

A payable shall be classified as a ‘trade payable’ if it is in respect of the amount due on account of goods purchased or services received in the normal course of business. It is not the course of business to pay salary to employees. The company is not dealing in paying salary for the services rendered by the employees.It can never be said payable for "trade"..
