No...
The Insurance Charges also account in Activa account.
Means account the insurance charges in the Asset account (Activa Account).

Yes , agree with Raja PM sir , as per AS10 initial cost incurred for asset should be Capitalise, means added back in cost of an asset.

Activa should be for business purposes, and I think it is for business purposes , to show an asset in the books of accounts.

What is the policy period ?
normally for new vehicle, it is for 5 years .i.e when future economic benefits are there (more than 1 year) then capitalize i.e add in fixed assets

Well question...

In the current scenario the policy terms to be 5 years.
The value also account in the Asset head (Activa). It's can't be split up for 5 years.

(The 5 years insurance like 5 years for thrid party and one year for rider)
