Case Law Details
Dimple Vishal Agrawal Vs ITO (ITAT Ahmedabad)
ITAT held that assessee is entitled for depreciation at the rate of 60% of xerox machine WV-5745. The simple reason is that the ld.CI(A) failed to comprehend true nature of this asset. It has been treated as photo-state machine without going through literature of the machine supplied by the manufacturer. According to the manual, it is multi-functional printer. Its feature to make photo-state of a paper is an added activity. It is also pertinent to observe that admissibility of depreciation at the rate of 60% is not disputed by the ld.CIT(A). The ld.CIT(A) has granted this rate of depreciation on all other assets, which are treated as peripheral of the computer. To my mind, this asset cannot be excluded for the reasons assigned by ld.CIT(A). It is to be treated as an integral part of the computer system which helps printing from the computer connected with it. Therefore, I allow this appeal, and delete disallowance.
