as per provisions of companies act 2013, preliminary expenditure which is incurred by the companies to be treated as revenue expenditure. irrespective the amount.
so what ever the balance is existed in balance sheet it to be written off immediately.
preliminary exp should not be consider as deferred revenue exp.
