The amount refundable in respect of a government grant
related to a specific fixed asset is recorded by increasing thebook value of the asset or by reducing the capital reserve orthe deferred income balance, as appropriate, by the amountrefundable. In the first alternative, i.e., where the book value ofthe asset is increased, depreciation on the revised book value is
provided prospectively over the residual useful life of theasset.
Where a grant which is in the nature of promoters' contributionbecomes refundable, in part or in full, to the government on
non-fulfillment of some specified conditions, the relevantamount recoverable by the government is reduced from thecapital reserve.
