what is contigent liability and state some examples also.

Answer Posted / souravaich

Contingent Liability is a liability which may or may not
occur, but it should be shown in the Notes to Accounts.

liability of tax after the decision is finalised.
another example : Guarantees extended are Contingent Liabilitys.
