Accounting standard AS-26 requires pre-operative and preliminary expenses be charged to the profit and loss account.
Under the Accounting Standard on Intangible Assets the concepts of pre-operative, preliminary and deferred revenue expenses are not recognised as separable deferred assets; preliminary and pre-operative expenditures must be debited in the Profit & Loss account, as explained in the standard's specified paragraph, and the standard applies to all entities from the implementation date.
