Does the Companies Act prescribe a particular number of years to write off Miscellaneous Expenditure (eg.Share Issue Expenses) in the Balance Sheet in Schedule VI?

Dear Ankush, After AS 26 has been made mandatory, miscellaneous exp. will be written off in the year in which it is incurred so there is no question of no.of years. Regards, CA Shakuntala Chhangani

To comply with section 211(3C) of the Companies Act,1956 the accounting standard 26 ,among others,has to be necessarily followed. So the entire expenditure should be written off in the initial year itself.
