what is red ink interest

Answer Posted / lakshman001

In an Current Account, interest is calculated on the amount of a bill from the date of transaction to the
closing date of the period concerned. In case the due date of the bill falls after the closing date of the
account, then no interest is allowed for that period. However, it is customarily followed that interest from the
date of closing to the due date is written in red ink in the appropriate side of the Account Current. This
interest is called Red-Ink Interest. This Red-Ink interest is treated as negative interest.
