I purchased current investment on 1 /10/23.(F.y23-24) For 50lakh As on 31/3/24.fair value is 40 lakh. Since it is current investment, I carry this investment @ 40 lakh as on 31/3/24. 10 lakh is debited to p&l F.Y24-25 On 1/5 /24 , i decided to convert short term into long term investment. Fair value on 1/5/24 is 20 lak Now conversation should happen at lower of cost or fair value on date of conversation Cost =50 lakh( historic cost) Fairvalue = 20 lakh Hence conversion should happen at 20lakh Now my doubt is how much shld be charged to p&l in F.Y24-25 My anwer is 20 lakh charge to p&l. (difference between carrying value(40lakh) and 20lakh( conversion value) Is my understanding correct??
