AS -13 (Accounting for investment)
Cost of investment : The cost beared by any person for purchase of investment is cost of investment as reduced by pre-dividend, if any, received.
Carrying Amount : the carrying amount of current investments shall be COST or MARKET VALUE whichever is lower and for permanent investment it will be COST, subject to permanent reduction.
