Revaluation Reserve

5607 views 10 replies

An asset has been revalued and difference (increased) is transferred to revaluation reserve during the year 2005-06.

In the year 2006-07, the asset has been sold for profit.

Can any one answer the treatment for the amount credited to revaluation reserve in 2005-06 i.e., whether the same can be used for issue of bonus share. If the same can not be used for the said purpose, what will be the alternative use?

the amount of profit is w.r.t. to revalued value or orginal cost, if it is agt. revalued than you have to calculate the wdv considering orginal valyue and not revalued one. and you cant issue bonus out of revaluation reserve

Bonus shares cannot be issued from revaluation Reserve
SEBI guidelines restricting issue of bonus shares out of revaluation reserve. However, Unlisted companies can issue bonus shares out of revaluation reserve since SEBI guidelines are not applicabale and the same has been upheld by the Supreme Court in - Appellants: Bhagwati Developers Vs. Respondent: Peerless General Finance and Investment Co. and Ors.
if comapny issued bonus shares in 05-06 is is not possible to issue from revaluation reserve account...... if comany issue bonus shares after sale of that respected asset then company is eligible to issue bonus shares fro that revaluation reserve account..... because after sale of asset revaluation reserve is automatically had the nature of free/general reserve
In the referred decision, Supreme Court has not specified about sale of asset. The Hon'ble court upheld issue of bonus shares out of revaluation reserve.
