Contingent liability does not appear in the balance sheet.
It is written as a note under the balance sheet because

Answer / murali royal
It's a liability which may or may not happen in future depending on happening of uncertain events. It wont appear in Balance sheet. But we should mention under the b/s as foot note. Because, as per the convention of disclosure we have to disclose all the information in the financial statements.
