are loose tools come under current assets ?..

Answer / h.r. sreepada bhagi

Tools of substantial value & used for more than a year can
be capitalised under "Tools, Jigs & Fixtures". This is
treated as Fixed Asset & depreciation needs to be charged to
P&L A/c. If the cost of tool is very small & long life is
not ensured, it should be charged off to P&L A/.c as
consumable stores or loose tools.

In any case tools do not come under "Current Assets" except
when they are held for sale (It will be shown as Stock in
Trade under Current Assets).

It is a fixed asset, and depreciation is charged on it every year. Therefore, it is NOT a current asset. It is a FIXED ASSET.
