What are the consequences if there are differences in capitalization date and starting date of depreciation? Is it non compliance of Statutory requirements?
Capitalization date shall be the date the asset is put to use. The date of charging depreciaiton may be reckoned from the date of purchase of asset as per books of account and from the date of put to use as per Income tax act.
