Answer / chetan

Discount on issue of debentrue will be consider as a long

what ever expenses incured to issue we will not show in p&l

And preliminary exp is capital expenditure and what ever
exp incured before incorporation of the comp is considered
to be preliminary exp and it will be write off in 5 equal
