The Schedule VI Head appears renamed in the Schedule-VI Balance Sheet:
Users can insert Heads at lowest level of the hierarchy of Schedule VI Heads.
For e.g.: User will not be able to insert head at Current Assets (Schedule VI Head) level, but will be able to do it at Other Current Assets (Sub-head) level.
