ACCOUNTING ENTRIES AND BOOKING OF PROFIT, Banking - Finance

[VASANT KULKARNI]

OURS IS A URBAN COOP BANK REGD. IN MAHARASHTRA AND DOING BANKING BUSINESS AS PER THE BANKING LICENCE ISSUED BY RBI.

OUR BANK CAN ACQUIRE THE PROPERTY OF A BORROWER U/S 100 (RULE 85) OF THE MAHA. COOP SOCIETIES ACT 1960.ACCORDINGLY BY FOLLOWING DUE PROCEDURE THE BANK ACQUIRED THE PROPERTIES OF BORROWERS AND THE ARE NOW SHOWN AS NON-BANKING ASSETS IN THE BOOKS OF BANK.THE DUES OF THE SAID BORROWERS STAND SETTELED AT THE PRICES FIXED BY COOP DEPT..IN SOME CASES FULL AMOUNT IS RECOVERED (PRINCIPLE+INTERSET).NOW THE BANK INTENDS TO SELL THE NON- BANKING ASSETS.PL ADVISE ON THE FOLLOWING.

1)WHETHER THE EXCESS AMOUNT REALISED BY THE BANK AFTER THE SALE OF ASSETS IS TO BE RETURNED TO THE BORROWER OR TAKEN AS CAPITAL GAIN BY BANK?

2)WHILE PASSING THE ENTRIES, THE LOAN ACCOUNT IS CREDITED BY THE VALUE OF ASSETS ACQUIRED viz.THE PRINCIPLE AS WELL AS THE INTEREST THEREON IS BOOKED.BUT THIS IS NOT ALLOWED BY RBI AS IT IS A MERE BOOK ENTRY AND THERE IS NO REALISATION OF INTEREST THEREON.IS THIS VIEW CORRECT?
